“KKK” Cartoon Reinstated
Must not refer to the KKK — even in a cartoon:
“The Beloit (Wis.) Daily News will bring back “Non Sequitur” next week after suspending it following a Nov. 24 episode showing a KKK-robe-clad chicken who only lays egg whites.
Some Daily News readers criticized Wiley Miller’s Nov. 24 strip. But many other readers (as well as cartoonists and “Non Sequitur” syndicator Universal Press Syndicate) noted that the strip was obviously ridiculing racism, not endorsing the racist KKK in any way.
