Speaking of Censorship, W.P. and Boondocks

Aaron McGruder's comic strip censored again....

You may wonder what I mean of speaking about Censorship... check the recent updates about WMAL AM630 talker host Michael Graham for that news....

Meanwhile, it seems that the Washington Post has again opted to censor popular "militant Black" cartoonist Aaron McGruder's comic strip "The Boondocks" over "content issues" (admitted on their own web site linking to comics).

The strip in question:



Admittedly the strip is insensitive, but it is in keeping with the topicality of current events, something that McGruder does very well.

I wish that Post had more guts to run McGruder's strip, but then again, they are the same people that years ago moved Doonesbury away from the comics pages to another area of the paper because they were concerned that Trudeau had become too political in his strip.
