Newspaper Cartoonists

Newspaper cartoonists are a fearless crowd. We comment on almost anything. The one thing that newspaper cartoonists don't comment on is the one thing that is worrying every professional newspaper cartoonist today.

So I had to bite the bullet and do a cartoon on this taboo topic.

I thought I'd also share it with you guys online.

By the end of the day on Monday, the administration found itself battling yet another potential crisis as lawyers for the Associated Press charged that the Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for the AP in what the news agency called a "massive and unprecedented intrusion" into how news organizations gather the news."-more

Happy Holiday
