The Patriot Ledger profiles Brian McFadden who does cartoons for the weekly New York Times? Sunday Review section.

McFadden’s work comments sardonically on everything from President Barack Obama to income inequality to the media itself.

“I’ll call out the media as often as politicians, especially the national media in Washington,” he said. “They have their own little universe where they think earning $250,000 is middle class. It’s like, ‘I heard a thing at a cocktail party, so that’s the word on the street.’ And it’s like, who goes to a cocktail party? I haven’t been to a cocktail party.”
