Fine with fat

"Michael Moore, you're fat!" Wow, Acorn, you really showed him, didn't you? I've concluded that I probably wouldn't be so struck by your frequent forays into the land of national political lampooning- always with a Democrat target- if these editorial cartoons would only even occasionally be presented with at least a little bit of wit.

So the message is that Michael Moore is not the body type you appreciate, and this alone is sufficient to diminish his work which, as far as I can tell, has been generally wellreceived. Are we in the fourth grade? I'm sure your many readers with similar body types are happy to know how well thought of they are.

Obviously the owners of your fine publication want to make sure that we all know what side of the aisle they sit on. That's fine. It's been part of journalism no doubt since Gutenberg. And I'm quite capable of laughing at a good caricature even when it's someone I support. Hey, everybody's fair game. But can we raise the level of discourse just a bit? In my mind "You're fat!" just doesn't cut it. No offense, Wild Bill (well, maybe).

Otherwise, keep up the generally great work; love your newspaper. Tony DeSena Calabasas
