An editorial cartoon

[Anne Telnaes, “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” The Washington Post, October 25, 2024.]

“Democracy Dies in Darkness” is the newspaper’s motto, appearing on the masthead.

Before my subscription runs out, here’s a gift link to the cartoon.

A friend posted that phrase with her canceled sub to the wapo.

Grateful for the Guardian, who printed,
"There’s no way to see this decision other than as an appalling display of cowardice and a dereliction of their public duty"

Yep. I’m going to be reading The Guardian.

I wonder what Jonathan Capehart will write about his paper’s decision. He was conspicuously missing from the PBS NewsHour last night.

By the way, Margaret Sullivan, who wrote the Guardian column, is a former public editor at the NYT. She’s been highly critical of the paper's coverage in this election.

It makes we weep.
