WaPo removes cartoon showing Cruz daughters as monkeys
washingtonexaminer ^ | Dec. 22, 2015 | T. Becket Adams

UPDATE 12.22.15: The Washington Post removed the cartoon late Tuesday evening, and issued an apology explaining that they did not review Telnaes' work prior to publishing.

"It's generally been the policy of our editorial section to leave children out of it," Post editor Fred Hiatt said in a statement.

"I failed to look at this cartoon before it was published. I understand why Ann thought an exception to the policy was warranted in this case, but I do not agree."

WAPO: We...we...we just didn't know, don't blame us...it was a mistake.

We're not biased, honest.

Waiting for the Washington Compost to have a cartoon portraying Obama’s daughters as little monkeys. The b*tches excuse is that Ted Cruz had his daughters in an Ad, well, Obama used his daughters in many Ads in 2008, so waiting for them to be portrayed as monkeys..liberals are pathetic and disgusting

The image is out there, and the damage is done. This would NEVER have been done with the Obama family.

THIS is why People like Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz are my Heroes.

If they would have said that to MY Family, They would have Flayed Alive and Hung from a Gibbet. >:(

Muzzies often refer to Jews as monkeys. Has WaPo been taken over by muzzies?

I can not describe my opinion of the media accurately without being banned for life.

The scum-bag press will go as low as conservatives allow it to....until they fight like Trump & Cruz finally are fighting. The only way to stop this abuse is to go balls to the wall like Trump.

OK, Ted Cruz is not my gut at the moment - but this kind of crap is just wrong.

Rep candidates, the ones that are worth damn anyway, just need to keep pointing out at every opportunity that the MSM are two-faced, lying scum.

If a Conservative cartoonist made a cartoon depicting Obama’s daughters as monkeys liberals would burn buildings to the ground, but do the same thing to a Conservatives kid, and these are little kids, nothing happens..Depicting Latino children as monkeys, gee, and here I thought liberals were not supposed to be racist/sarc

The Post is too vile to see their own bias... and their hatred of traditional Americans.
