Mallard Fillmore Responds to Gannett Drop
Skip to commentsIt seems Bruce Tinsley rushed a Mallard Fillmore comic strip in response to Gannett ordering its newspapers to drop the conservative comic. On Monday March 22 the syndicated newspaper strip issued what was an obvious acknowledgement of Gannett’s actions.

It should be noted that soon after Bruce’s return in September of 2020 a schedule of two dailies comics and the Sunday page were by Tinsley and the other four dailies by Loren Fishman became the routine. This week the Monday strip was followed by, what I would guess were, the two regularly scheduled Tinsley strips. So Bruce has three dailies this week, making me think the March 22 edition was shoehorned in for quick publication.
