Ann Telnaes, a cartoonist for The Washington Post, resigned after the paper rejected her cartoon that criticized Amazon founder Jeff Bezos for his perceived subservience to President-elect Trump. She claimed this was the first time her work was spiked due to its political content, raising concerns about editorial independence at the paper.

I am older than some, admittedly, but '68 is where my mind first went, even before the missed opportunity to evoke the "69 - nice" call-and-response
