Why isn't Doonesbury appearing in the Chicago Tribune this week? The strips "do not meet our standards of fairness."
The “Doonesbury” strips refer to allegations purportedly contained in an as-yet-unreleased book about former Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska). The book is not yet available for verification or review by the Chicago Tribune. To be sure, “Doonesbury” is a satirical cartoon, but the remarks are serious enough that we cannot publish the strip without more information, context and a response from Palin.
