Breen living “under daily censorship”
James O. Goldsborough, a former columnist for the The San Diego Union-Tribune makes a claim that editorial cartoonist Steve Breen is living “under daily censorship.”
When I left, Steve Breen, the editorial cartoonist, lived under daily censorship. It was not unusual for Breen’s best cartoons, which are syndicated, to run in newspapers around the country but be killed in the San Diego for being too critical of Republicans. Breen, a talented man, was being de-fanged, never a good state of affairs for a watchdog.
Lately Breen seems to have gotten his fangs back. I have an idea why that happened, but never mind. It helps make up for all those dreadful editorials.
