Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] STOP HATED & BIGOTED MEDIA/ART/SPEECH/MURDOC


Artists need to take responsibility for their work.
Some of mine has stirred up lots of controversy.
When I am in the wrong, I apologize.
When not, I educate.

I find nothing to admire, like or defend regarding Mr. Murdoc.
He is, imo, always a problem, never a solution.

I have worked as a cartoonist (way back in the Nixon years) and  
theatrical satirist.
I think satire should be funny.
Cannot excuse or rationalize racism or clumsy metaphors.
