WaPo Drops Rall
The Washington Post has finally come to its senses and dropped the execrable Ted Rall from its pages.
Apparently this vile piece of tripe was the straw that broke the camel's back.
I hit the wall when Rall dishonored the memory of one of our fallen brothers.
If you read the Editor and Publisher piece, the guy's self-centered narcissism just oozes from the page. The thing is, he has all the editorial maturity of a precocious 15-year old drawing for his high school paper. Except I've seen better cartoons in high school papers.
The guy simply isn't very good. He has a poor grasp of irony and satire, his technique as a writer and cartoonist is awful, and he confuses cruelty with being "hard-hitting."
But good art is not cruel.
It's about time the Washington Post realized he's a disgrace to their pages.
Splash, out
