Cartoons are still just coming in following the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, but the tragic death of the young pundit is clearly the focus of both readers and editors as the week ends.
Jeff Koterba’s cartoon showing the Statue of Liberty’s bloody torch of “civil discourse” is already one of our most-reprinted cartoons this week. R.J. Matson’s popular 9/11 cartoon highlighted the growing political divide that might have played a role in Kirk’s untimely death at the end of an assassin’s bullet.
Our most-reprinted cartoon wasn’t about a news topic at all – it was Rick McKee’s fun look at the return of football, which is as good a form of distraction as anything else these days… unless you’re a New York Jets fan.
Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:
