The line that had me literally laughing out loud was

“Mr Shapiro promptly fixed a shower to Mr Zuma’s head in the next cartoon â€“ and the shower has stayed ever since. “People keep asking me ‘will you keep the shower on him when he becomes president’ and I say ‘why the heck not’?” said Mr Shapiro, 50″

Genius stuff!

This is my favorite line from the newspaper article:

“Behind all this lies Mr Zuma’s belief that satire is a Western imposition, trampling on Africa’s traditional sense of respect for its leaders.”

I had no idea that questioning the powerful was a tool of Western imperialism.
