Saw
a great HBO documentary on Herb Block today called "Herblock." Block
was an amazing political cartoonist (for those younger folks reading my
status line who may not remember him). I would dare say he was an
extremely patriotic and courageous journalist in his own artistic way.
Interesting that many who were interviewed seemed to give Colbert and
Stewart the mantle for carrying on his tradition and perhaps his style
of political satire. That would never had occurred to me, but I can see
it now. http://www.herbblockfoundation.org/
