But I must take some exception to it.

I would hope so! That's what makes a discussion.

(As is said of partnerships: if partners always agree, one of them is unnecessary.)

TV and cartooning are totally different. I was talking about TV -- mass media. It is targeted at a large number of people. Doonesbury was political cartooning, a very different thing. Also, TV reflects the combined work of a large number of people. A political cartoon is the creative work of one person (occasionally helped by assistants to draw or fill in, but basically one person.)

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but the article Edwarda put up for discussion was specifically about sitcoms. I responded to that; you didn't. So our messages really passed each other without even saying hello! <g>
