Nothing wrong with this cartoon
To the Editors:
In response to the last week's letter to the editor, "Nothing funny about this cartoon" by Julia Reed:
Cartoon definition: drawing.
Synonyms: animation, caricature, comic strip, drawing, lampoon, painting, parody, representation, ridicule, satire, sketch, takeoff.
I was under the impression that cartoons are parodies, takeoffs, a means by which one might comment on and criticize a current situation. I would "assume," therefore, that a cartoon I saw was indeed a satire. Some people say things with words, others with pictures; aren't we on the same page?
