I just received this from one of the Concord Monitors advertisers.

If anyone is in the Concord area please support this business.

Please send Darrell at the Music Barn a note thanking him for his support.

Having found the recent ad in the Concord Monitor in such poor taste, it has been our decision to cease all advertising in this newspaper until an apology is forthcoming.

Thank you for your concern.

I received the email from Mr. Darrell, also.

I congratulated him to the heights for his decision to withold advertising till the paper issues an apology.

I also took the opportunity to voice my hope he didn't consider the self-serving "apology" issued by the editor to be legitimate. I parsed a few phrases of the phony "mea culpa" for Mr. Darrell's benefit.

But I did it all gently and intellectually in good freeper fashion and ended my email with a salute to his astuteness.

Thank you for your e-mail. We were unaware the cartoon was going to appear in the same issue as our advertising.

I have received several e-mails regarding this cartoon.We agree with your position and I can assure you I will be in touch with the Monitor to express my disgust at this tastless and unpatriotic cartoon.

Regards,
