Dear Ms Palmer
The decision to pull this week's "Boondocks" comic strip was done because it did not meet The Post standard in regards to commenting on the private lives of public officials. The information must be accurate and relevant. Thus, it was our editorial decision that this week's comic strip was not appropriate to run due to its' subject matter.
Thank you for contacting us.
Sincerely,
Josephine Bynum
News Administration
Anybody know if any comic strips (not editorial cartoons) lampooned Clinton's affair with Monica? Has Doonesbury lampooned the private lives of public officials. Me thinks the WPost is being chickenshit on this and doing some more brownnosing to the Bush WH.
