La Cucaracha dropped from the Fresno Bee

I'm copying this from an email

La Cucaracha, the first nationally syndicated daily political comic
strip by a Latino, and the first to deeply explore Latino themes of
politics, culture and humor has been dropped by the Fresno Bee. Lalo's
strip is a platform for farmworkers, teachers, Latino kids, immigrants
and people of color from coast to coast, and it is a shame that a
voice of this magnitude is being silenced. If there is enough
response to this removal, the Fresno Bee may be convinced to bring
back the strip. Previously, the paper has said it received most
complaints from Hispanics, so please help tip the balance from a few
conservative Latinos who called in to complain about the strip. (For
more info on the strip, go to http://www.ucomics.com/lacucaracha)

Lalo just received proclamations from Lieutenant Governor Cruz
Bustamante, the 2004 Latino Spirit Award from the California Latino
Legislative Caucus and additional proclamations from the City of Los
Angeles and Congresswoman Hilda Solis, which was entered into the
permanent US Congressional Record.

Please call the Features Editor, Rich Marshall, and ask politely that
the comic strip La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz please be added back to
the Fresno Bee comics page.
