Mohammed Cartoon Withdrawn By Papers For… Not Featuring Mohammed

The most recent Sunday edition of the syndicated strip Non Sequitur by Wiley has been replaced with an earlier edition by a number of newspapers at the weekend.

In the comment section of his strip, when one reader complained that the Boston  Globe has run a different cartoon, Wiley responded saying;

Yours along with many other papers across the country were afraid to run this cartoon. In doing so, it is rife with irony, as it is obviously satirizing the paralyzing fear in media of anything regarding Islam. Cowards indeed.

For those of you whose paper ran the alternate edition, I strongly suggest you contact the editor and voice your opinion on the matter. They are the ones who need to hear it, as they are the ones who made the decision.

There has been much controversy over the use of cartoons featuring the image of Mohammed.

This is possibly the most fuss caused over a cartoon for not featuring him.
