Killed Cartoons : Casualties of the War on Free Expression

By (author) Wallis, David

Think you live in a society with a free press? These celebrated cartoonists and illustrators found out otherwise. Whether blasting Bush for his Bring em on! speech, spanking pedophile priests, questioning capital punishment, debating the disputed 2000 election, or just mocking baseball mascots, they learned that newspapers and magazines increasingly play it safe by suppressing satire. With censored cartoons, many unpublished, by the likes of Garry Trudeau, Doug Marlette, Paul Conrad, Mike Luckovich, Matt Davies, and Ted Rall (all Pulitzer Prize winners or finalists), as well as unearthed editorial illustrations by Norman Rockwell, Edward Sorel, Anita Kunz, Marshall Arisman, and Steve Brodner, you will find yourself surprised and often shocked by the images themselves and outraged by the fact that a fearful editor kept you from seeing them. Needed now more than ever because of a neutered press that s more lapdog than watchdog, "Killed Cartoons" will make you laugh, make you angry, and make you think.
