Sean Delonas' New York Post cartoon said, essentially, "Screw you, monkeys." The Post itself said, "Screw you if you didn't like it." But Rupert Murdoch—their boss—is suddenly being polite! Did Rev. Al win? Rupert has issued what we must admit is a very civil and human-sounding apology! ...

Black people (so demanding!) weren't satisfied with one protest of the New York Post and the paper's shitty non-apology for Sean Delonas' racist chimp cartoon. What's behind this? Lots of history! The brief backstory: The Post is a right wing rag and has always been pretty well hated by New York's b...

My partner-in-crime, Sarah Jaffe, is on deadly point re: cartoonist Sean Delonas and the now-infamous New York Post race fail: Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post said on MSNBC (at about 3:55 of the video) that the problem might’ve been caught if there was better diversity in the workplace.

Rev. Al Sharpton, having no other plans for the day, just held a protest outside the New York Post 's headquarters to protest Sean Delonas' monkey cartoon. It's more outrageous than Don Imus, sez the Rev! Sharpton said it's worse than Don Imus' derogatory comments about the Rutgers women's basketbal...

I'm no Al Sharpton fan and I'm always careful about going there, but this right here is some racist bullshit: The Rev. Al Sharpton says a New York Post cartoon that appears to link President Obama to a violent chimpanzee is "troubling at best." The cartoon in Wednesday's Post by Sean Delonas shows a...
