Check out this local TV news report from Salt Lake City about the editorial cartoonists convention last week!
Portland-based cartoonist Matt Bors reports on the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists convention in Utah:
“I’m still processing the fact that I got drunk with Chuck Asay and debated whether or not Jesus was a communist.
These are the type of things that happen when you gather America’s editorial cartoonists in a hotel for a weekend; Christian fundamentalists mingle with Marxists over local microbrews and respectfully discuss how the other is totally wrong on everything. Except on editors. We’re all correct that they are terrible people for not running us.”
