Nick Anderson leaves for the Houston Chronicle next week. The Courier-Journal says they will replace Nick Anderson.
Prepare to say so long to editorial cartoonist Nick Anderson, who leaves The Courier-Journal next week to take up residence on the editorial pages of The Houston Chronicle.
…
Forum editor Keith Runyon says there’s “every intention” of filling the position that Anderson leaves vacant.
I certainly hope so.
No one can take Anderson’s place, he’s that unique and that good, but I don’t think this newspaper should be without the energy, the humor, the intelligence and the pointedness a staff cartoonist brings to local issues, a rich and important legacy Anderson bequeaths his successor.
