About this listen
Ted Rall (from the Left) and Scott Stantis (from the Right) dive deep with renowned political cartoonist Mr. Fish (Dwayne Booth). This sharp, subversive artist skewers power with bold, provocative illustrations that appear in Harper's Magazine, ScheerPost, and beyond. Known for his raw takes on politics, war, and society, Mr. Fish faces intense scrutiny over cartoons critiquing the Israel-Hamas conflict and U.S. policy. Critics blast some work as employing anti-Semitic tropes and leading to condemnation from University of Pennsylvania leadership. This firestorm culminates in his firing from lecturing at UPenn amid broader debates on free speech, academic freedom, and censorship in higher ed. Mr. Fish pushes back hard, framing it as part of a McCarthyist crackdown on dissent against genocide, apartheid, and fascism. Expect fireworks as these three editorial powerhouses clash and connect over cartooning's role in cutting through BS.
