Controversial cartoonist Michael Leunig has been axed from his prime spot in The Age newspaper after a cartoon comparing resistance against mandatory Covid vaccines to the fight for democracy in Tiananmen Square was censored.
'Apparently, I’m out of touch with the readership,' Leunig told The Australian's Media Diary of his sacking from providing the editorial page cartoon in Monday editions of the Melbourne-based publication.
Leunig's cartoon, which never made the paper, featured one of his typically fragile, big-nosed figures facing the silhouette of a tank with a syringe in place of the gun turret.
In the top left corner, the 76-year-old copied the iconic 'Tank Man' image showing a Beijing demonstrator standing in the path of a column of tanks in 1989.

I see. So you’re not even allowed to have the opinion anymore? Here’s my opinion: These people are evil.
Fantastic cartoon.
Long live the memory of Tank Man.
Poor guy was probably executed within days.
Really can't believe what's going on down under.
If he was lucky.
Perfect!
Also...fire a cartoonist...they’re not gonna stop cartooning.
"You can choose any color you want, as long as you choose black."
“If he was lucky.”
True.
Too much of the world is so ignorant, that it will be the death of humanity.
I prefer this analogy:
The totalitarian attitude of the vax pushers here, is the same exact totalitarian attitude the communist chinese have over Taiwan reunification.
