CSotD: Don’t be what you see
Skip to comments
Jen Sorensen has a decided mean streak, and a willingness to play to a faithful, rather than mass, audience, which makes her weekly strip Slowpoke more incisive than most political/social observation cartoons.
What I like about her work is that there are other cartoonists, on both sides of the aisle*, who are capable of becoming furious over the things they see, but most of them lose perspective and their cartoons become screeds. Somehow, Sorensen manages to get just as angry, but still manages to make a coherent point.
*Lesson Plan of the Day: Make a list of really angry conservative political cartoonists and a list of really angry liberal political cartoonists. Now show where each of them is being published. Discuss this in light of the concept of the liberal media.
