Summary
Pulitzer-winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes resigned from The Washington Post after the paper refused to publish her cartoon depicting owner Jeff Bezos and other media leaders kneeling before Donald Trump.
Telnaes criticized the decision as censorship, calling it dangerous for press freedom.
The Post’s opinions editor, David Shipley, defended the move, citing redundancy with other content.
Telnaes’s resignation follows backlash over the Post’s recent editorial decisions, including avoiding endorsements for Kamala Harris, which led to mass subscription cancellations.
Telnaes has long been celebrated for her bold commentary and award-winning work.
And it’s completely bullshit, just phrased so people think it’s “old timey”, it’s always been an issue but more so since social media. People just believe anything with a Historical figure’s name at the end.

Woosh
I understand the joke just fine but I don’t think you understood mine. That’s OK though, it wasn’t a very good one.
