Under their new criteria, the DC rag wants their cartoonists to actually be funny and not just tasteless and abrasive. But Rall doesn't see it that way:
"More importantly, I forgot the editorial cartoonist's obligation to comfort the afflicted while afflicting the comfortable. I got the latter in that cartoon at the expense of the former. Special-needs children face a lot of challenges; they don't need, or deserve, mocking from me. ... The cartoon was effective in its way, but it could have been better."
Pretentious to the end.
