Tank McNamara sacked at Washington Post
Skip to comments
Michael Cavna reports that the Washington Post pulled the original Tank McNamara and is running a replacement because the strip insinuates Dick Cheney advising the NFL commissioner to kill Michael Vicks. See original strip on GoComics.com
Post Managing Editor Raju Narisetti says the decision was a no-brainer: The original strips were deemed “inappropriate.” The Post sacked the week’s strips, in which NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell seeks advice on how to handle the reinstatement of former quarterback/convict Vick, who ran a pit-bull ring that resulted in canine deaths; the storyline attempts to satirize issues such as perceptions of racism by the NFL front office and owners.
