11-MINUTE WORKOUT: TOP TEN CARTOONS OF THE WEEK

It was really a mixed bag for editors this week, as our most popular cartoons featured a number of different topics, ranging from artificial intelligence to President Biden’s lackluster support.

Our most popular cartoon this week was an exercise-related gag by Jeff Koterba, riffing off studies that show walking just 11 minutes a day is beneficial to your health. It’s probably best to avoid the drive thru, though.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

#1. Jeff Koterba

 

#2. Dick Wright

 

#3. Rick Mckee

 

#4. Randall Enos

 

#5. Jeff Koterba

 

#6. Dave Whamond

 

#7. John Darkow

 

#8. Dave Granlund

 

#9. Pat Byrnes

 

#10. Dave Granlund

Top Ten Cartoons of the Week – August 22, 2020

Here are the ten most widely published cartoons of the week (August 15th through August 22nd, 2020). As usual, no drawings of president Trump were among the most popular with newspaper editors. No cartoons about the Democratic Convention, Joe Biden or Kamala Harris got much ink. Steve Bannon’s arrest garnered some cartoons but got few reprints. Foreign cartoonists drawing about Belarus and the poisoning of a top Russian dissident were ignored by editors.

The top performing cartoons this week are a clear lesson in what editors want now: light cartoons about the tough times Americans live in. There are four pandemic/back-to-school cartoons on the list this week, which remains the most popular topic with editors, as it has been for the past three months.

The CagleCartoonists who are usually the most reprinted were again the most reprinted this week. Congratulations to the four cartoonists who each have two cartoons in the Top Ten, Dave Whamond (#1 and #8), Jeff Koterba (#2 and #4), Steve Sack (#5 and #9) and Dave Granlund (#5 and #7).  And kudos to the two other cartoonists who made the most reprinted list this week, John Darkow and Adam Zyglis!

Our Top Ten is a measure of how many editors choose to reprint each of our cartoons, from the 62 cartoonists in our syndication package. Just about half of America’s daily, paid circulation newspapers (around 700 papers) subscribe to CagleCartoons.com.


Our reader supported site, Cagle.com, still needs you!  Journalism is threatened with the pandemic that has shuttered newspaper advertisers. Some pundits predict that a large percentage of newspapers won’t survive the pandemic economic slump, and as newspapers sink, so do editorial cartoonists who depend on newspapers, and along with them, our Cagle.com site, that our small, sinking syndicate largely supports, along with our fans.

The world needs political cartoonists more now than ever. Please consider supporting Cagle.com and visit Cagle.com/heroes.  We need you! Don’t let the cartoons die!
