dogs, cosmic irony, and the New Yorker

For anyone who read my last post. How strange is this? A cartoon from The New Yorker Cartoon Bank.
PS. Maxi Saver Dollar Theater is running Crash and Hustle and Flow, both got positive reviews from Denby.

welcome stolie.
and to everyone else, stolie's blog is a riot.
Yeah. It is an offensive cartoon. And I think you're right, anyone can and SHOULD do the kind of literary, art, cultural criticisms the NYer does, and can do them a lot better and with more relevance. That's kind of the point of attacking poor Mr. Denby.
The news is a little different, and I dwell on it less here. Seymour Hersh and Mark Danner are standouts in the mainstream media for the kind of investigations they are doing, and I suspect it takes a lot of funds and connections to get the info they do. Not that blogging doesn't provide good insights and perspectives on major world events, it does . . . but Hersh and Danner have a really important role to play too.
I love that cartoon!
