Artist's Comments

The broadcast coverage of this war is useless. Admit it. The best thing we see from our EMBEDDED REPORTERS is a frikkin charred truck. Ted Kopple knows nothing but pessimism and the statistics are a joke. Really. Anway, I REALLY like the CG shading job I did on this. Man.

nice to see a war piece that's not trying to stir up the war-antiwar flames... nice job on the art, and the humor is pretty good... the punchline could be a little betteer, but it gets the point across. i think SOME war coverage is neccessary, but they seem to be getting in the way, as your cartoon depicts with frightening accuracy. i do believe it's important to have journalists there documenting this, though.

Yay!!! finally a war cartoon i can laugh at and appreciate no atter who I support. The coverage is getting really ridiculous... the other night, on Fox News, Oliver North was actually using coverage time to try and sell his book!!!what an asshole!

Not to mention that everytime one of the fox news reporters talks to troops, they try and get a soundbite plug for the network... I cant believe that they are using the war to sell stuff like that... American television media is hitting new lows... not depths

HAHAAHAH!! so true, the american mass media is so worthless, I swear to god you'd think they were covering the super bowl or something. I wonder what the halftime show is =P (Razz)

hmm thought I commented on this before, but I guess I'm just losing my mind...

Anyway I would like to say that all your war satires are perfect. You dont try to stir up contraversy, you just draw to make people laugh. That is what seperates you from the rest. Awesome work, just like the rest of your stuff.
