A second Ted Rall comic? What gives .. is this some kind of sympathy thing for him being dropped from so many papers for not have the right "tone" for the current administration?
And speaking of tone … didn’t you all get the memo from Arizona? I thought it was a bad thing to support and encourage those who openly advocate for political violence ?

Why does cjr have a comics section? And why are they scrawled in crayon unlike good comics like Tom Tomorrow
http://www.dailykos.com/user/Tom%20Tomorrow
or Barry Deutsh
http://www.leftycartoons.com/
Ted Rall is a sometimes reasonable guy with a point, but a lot of the time he's nasty and his strip isn't that insightful or funny.
So why is he contributing to a journalism review site? Are you content reviewers or content makers?
If you're content makers, get some good content that won't burn you 6 months from now with careless words you don't want to be associated with.

Sorry about the repeat posts but your cgi seems to be returning a "javascript source missing" error which gives the submitter the impression the comment needs to be resubmitted.
And I'm not the only one it appears.
I'm on a mac with os x 10.5 and I used Google Chrome and Safari to make my submissions. Does it work right on windows?

Ps. I like the preview button. If that's the cause, once you work out the bugs, I will enter a state of ecstatic bliss.

What an unusual way of describing news! Seems to me it makes the process even more interesting :) just like skill games help me to be in good mood.

I like the comic and hope there will be more. It's a criticism site so some vitrol with humor is totally appropriate. That said, anyone seen the new Newsweek. Is Rall on the mark about what Tina Brown has turned it in to?
