An editorial cartoon questioning the notion of slave reparations published by a student newspaper in Indiana was denounced as disrespectful of Purdue University's minority community and prompted an apology by the editor of the paper, The Exponent.
Should've made it critical of whites in some way; then there wouldn't have been a problem!
I caught the fury of our local feminuts' wrath a few years back as a newspaper columnist when I repeated some comments about men made in a local university's women's studies program.
The only little bit of editorial tinkering I did was to include the descriptive adjective *black* in the copy, since one of my neighbors at the time was a single black guy, and that helped me- and presumably, our readers- better visualize him as an oppressor of women.
HE thought it was funny as he11, and spot-on. My editor thought it was a hoot. Them dumbJanes did not.
