I admit to a crime of jumping to a conclusion before I ad looked at the
complete gallery. Yes, there are some excellent anti-WTO ones, including
a few from my favorite cartoonist Kirk. Still, the anti-WTO cartoons
typify the conservative pro-business nature of most newspapers. They
can't make a subtle point, so they resort to stereotypes about hippy
protestors.
