Why I'm quitting the Washington Post - Ann Telnaes’s cartoon


Why I'm quitting the Washington Post

 

As an editorial cartoonist, my job is to hold powerful people and institutions accountable. For the first time, my editor prevented me from doing that critical job.

But I will not stop holding truth to power through my cartooning, because as they say, “Democracy dies in darkness”. Ann Telnaes Jan 4, 2025.
