Cartoons are for kids…I thought

Cartoons have been getting way too much attention these days, with adults behaving like 5 years olds because someone drew a nasty one. The genre has just been furthered by Indonesian and Australian newspapers publishing cartoons of each other’s President in a compromising position.

The way these things get blown out of proportion, newspaper editors should know better. The Weekend Australian published a cartoon with a dog like SBY ‘doin’ it’ with a person from Papua.

Sunday is tomorrow and that means all the trouble maker in Jakarta will have the day off. The Australian Embassy issued an alert in case of protests or other more serious forms of response. The Age comments further, no doubt feeling a little superior right now.
