Daryl Cagle has posted news that Larry Wright is retiring permanently from the Detroit News at the end of this month. He retired from the paper as a full time employee in 2006, but continued to freelance three cartoons a week with them until last year where they dropped him to two a week and then finally down to one a week later this year. He writes that they’re “cutting me off the end of the year.”

Clarification: Daryl writes in to note that Larry will continue to freelance for the paper, just not as an editorial cartoonist.
