Anyhoo, the situation in Haiti is terrible. The moment-by-moment coverage is necessary for awareness, getting aid delivered, and keeping track of developments. But the impoverished conditions Haitians struggle with day-to-day, earthquake or not, deserve sustained coverage and CONTEXT. That seems beyond the capabilities of the modern mainstream media.
Heads up: Next week’s cartoon will be the LAST cartoon strip for In Contempt. I will talk about it more then, as well as my plans for the site. But I wanted to keep y’all posted.
