CNN's RW political cartoon page...where's the LW cartoons? (and Novak too)
Those of you who stop in at CNN to read Bill Mitchell's LW political cartoons may have noticed our boy is MIA since Oct. 28th.

Meanwhile, RW Bob Lang has rolled out nearly a dozen cartoons.

Source: http://www.cnn.com/POLITICS/analysis/toons/archive.html

Bill may be on an unannounced vacation, or something more sinister may be involved. Either way CNN has placed nothing to balance out Lang.

Meanwhile, everyone's favourite melt-down artist: Bob Novak, keeps getting space from CNN for his political opinion. No one at CNN seems to recognize the hypocrisy of pulling Novak from the air because he melted down on live TV while publishing his editorials as if they were worthy of serious consideration. If the guy is crazy enough to keep off TV, ain't he crazy enough to dismiss his -written- diatribes?

Perhaps it's time to ask CNN what's up with that.

Be sure to mark your comment as "Positive" ('cause we all know what happens to "negative" comments).

"Since CNN deemed Bob Novak too unstable to appear on TV, why has CNN.com never pulled Novak's essays? Why does CNN.com continue to publish his essays?"

Consider that the guy who outted a CIA secret agent during war-time is still making a good buck and never served jail time. This supposed to discourage such behaviour?

1. Alright!
"Is there a particular reason why CNN.com has published nothing but RW political cartoons since October 28, 2005? Are you dropping all pretenses of being unbiased? Well, at least you're being honest with yourselves, and with the rest of us -- finally. (visualize me rolling my eyes at you)"

================================

Meh, I know emails to them are useless, but it's still fun to imagine what is going through the mind of the person who has to read them. :P
