A portion of the Sept. 20 cartoon by Michael Ramirez.
I was dismayed to read where the Review-Journal has agreed to carry Michael Ramirez cartoons regularly (“Taking his talents, pen to Las Vegas,” Sept. 16 Review-Journal). I became familiar with his work when I read the L.A. Times. In spite of his pronouncement that he is an “equal-opportunity offender,” nothing could be further from the truth. Ramirez touts that “his work won’t show allegiance to any political party,” yet a year into Trump’s presidency Ramirez continued to draw cartoons blaming Barack Obama for perceived injustices. Ramirez is strongly biased toward the Republican party. His cartoons reflect that bias.
