Washington Post: Why It's Time to Give Peanuts Creator Charles Schulz His Own Google Doodle
by GoComicsMany famous artists and cartoonists have been recognized through Google Doodles - Scott Adams, Jim Henson, Dr. Seuss "... the list goes on.
With the 65th anniversary of Peanuts approaching, The Washington Post's Michael Cavna makes a request to Google in an open letter: Honor the legendary Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz with a Google Doodle.
As the article notes, there is no better time than now.
"That's right, this Nov. 26 will mark the 93rd anniversary of the cartoonist's birth, in Minneapolis (the same month that 'The Peanuts Movie' will open). Before that, Oct. 2 will mark the 65th anniversary of the debut of the Peanuts comic strip - in fewer than 10 newspapers. And Dec. 9 will mark the golden anniversary of the first broadcast of the first Peanuts TV special: the Emmy-winning 'A Charlie Brown Christmas.' Yes, this season, the occasions to celebrate abound." - via The Washington Post
