Clay Bennett, the current AAEC president, has come out criticizing the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for firing of Tim Menees who has been at that paper for 30 years.

“I understand that the Post-Gazette had two cartoonists,” said Bennett, referring to the duo of Menees and Rob Rogers. “But that looks like a strength to me — a great one-two punch. I guess it looks different through the eyes of an accountant.”
