Accuracy for cartoons

Sun., Dec. 11, 2011

Thank you for printing the Nov. 30 letter written by W. Ross Coble (“Cartoon occupies unfairness”). I couldn’t agree more!

Even an iconoclast such as cartoonist Michael Ramirez must be held accountable for accuracy. I count on The Spokesman-Review for information that is timely, informative, accurate and even provocative.

I urge your editors to set the highest standards for accuracy, even on the Opinion page.
