Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for June 22, 2023

Obviously, this student was raised in a home that didn’t subscribe to MTV.

Squirrel!

In other words nothing has changed since this strip was first published? 1999?

Garry, you’ve got to be more careful of your drawing. That “thing” in the last panel looks like a mic coming out of its forehead and papers growing out of its right ear!!

I agree, only fine artists should draw cartoons

Since 1999, campaign financing got a lot worse and lopsided because of Citizens United.

And Hedley continues to travel down the “Lonesome Rhode”.

Since this item was drawn in 1999, Garry may have realized this himself by now.

I mean, there’s a simple fix: Just make it an act of treason to accept a single private dollar while serving in the US government. Campaigns can be publicly financed.

LOL! It’s just too true.

Roland’s idea of an in-depth report is two sound bites? But then that is probably the attention span of his audience.

In 1999, this was funny. In 2023 it is a sad reminder of the state of media.

Out of Hedley’s depth.

Depth is a word of many meanings.
