"Or, as J. Jonah Jameson would put it..."
"Years ago, before they became notorious, I thought I would check out FOX News. I was expecting another point of view, but not lies. The first (and last) thing I saw was a blonde asking a group on the street “are Democrats traitors or are they just…"
"I did send them another e-mail this morning. I told them "fairness and balance" is exactly why they should be running Doonesbury. "
""Fairness and balance".Some Cthuzpah."
"The Dallas Morning News opted not to run the Sunday Doonesbury no fewer than five times leading up to the last Presidential election. (See previous page of this discussion.) I wrote two letters to the editor and recieved only an automated response…"
"Another Doonesbury not run by the DMN in the run-up to the 2024 Presidential election.

" The Dallas Morning News ran another substitute Doonesbury for today, OCTOBER 20. I did not receive a personal reply to the letter I sent last week (nor did I expect one), but they did print the following disclaimer in today's comics section along…"
"Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that they have dropped Doonesbury, only that they didn't run the Trump strips. Apparently, something was said about it (by editorial or a reader, I don't know) in Wednesday's paper, which is not part of my subscription.…"
"Doing a little digging, it seems that your newspaper has been owned by Gannett for a while now and that they have been dropping various strips from (apparently) hundreds of papers for budgetary reasons. It was stated that they dropped Doonesbury…"
"The 9/29 and 10/6 strips you say they didn't print are both attacking Trump. If they printed today's surfer gag. which is dated 10/13, then they are avoiding Doonesbury's anti-Trump stuff as an editorial policy. That would be even more disappointing."
