Bennett cartoon in poor taste
Again Clay Bennett and the Times Free Press have poked a finger in the eye of good taste. Mr. Bennett on (Feb. 3) depicted Sen. John McCain as a gaunt, dilapidated, old horse with a caption implying the Maverick had become an Old Nag.
Sen. McCain has given his life in service of our country, first as a decorated Navy pilot in Vietnam then as a public servant from Arizona. While in Vietnam he was shot down and spent five years as a POW, tortured so badly that he was left badly disabled.
Ironically, Sunday (Feb. 3) you posted an open letter regarding the loss of the paper’s revenue partially due to a cancellation in subscriptions. Perhaps you should review these losses.
Is it any wonder that our country is so politically divided with such media hostility toward anyone they disagree with rather than honest debate about the issues?
