Member		By chance I just uploaded another flying pig in connection with Media induced hysteria over the swine flu. I swear I didn't see this great cartoon in advance, not this discussion either. This is a great idea you got; mine is more of the pig turned into a feathered vampire sort of. ¡Felicitaciones, amigo! Bob Row, on June 05, 2009 [report post] [quote] [reply]

Member		It's not a "bad cartoon" in fact it's successful in that it's causing a lot of discussion and provoking thought, positive and negative on the part of most of us here. I think the artist is making a connection to nine eleven in that planes FLEW into NYC on that horrific day, just like the plane from MExico Flew into NYC with horrific results. Some might think its an exploitation of the 911 incident to show the pig in this context, but the artist is free to create what they feel gets their message across. Editorial cartooning expressing a point of view. It doesnt neccessarily have to be "right" or "accurate" it's just an impression. subwaysurfer, on May 15, 2009 [report post] [quote] [reply]

Member		your point is well taken. Im from NYC and a lot of issues that I wont name here are not being addressed in this city as the Swine Flu story has taken over. I dont even really think we are being told properly what precausions to take here. They tell us the schools that were affected and closed on one hand, and then tell us "not to worry" I work as a professional caricature party artist where i come in contact with a lot of kids... Im shuddering to think NOW of going to a party where some potentially infected kid will cough on me or touch me! NYC was dangerous enough already!

Member		@prinzparadox: Agreed. docdiesel, on May 06, 2009 [report post] [quote] [reply]

Member		okay, docdiesel, I just thought this is a funny cartoon when I saw it the first time, but now I understand... Well, it's a crucial topic. It is black humor, but I think it doesn't harm anyone. Maybe the swine flu is a welcome topic for the media to distract the people from the real problems, especially in the USA, once again. prinzparadox, on May 06, 2009 [report post] [quote] [reply]

Member		panzer wrote: sorry, but this is a bad cartoon... In the one point I agree with you: it's a cartoon. Cartoons don't have to show the truth. (Never have seen a flying pig. ;-) In my opinion a cartoon is worth drawing as long as there's a chance that it makes people a) laugh, b) think or c) maybe even both. This one is a bit of black humour, I must admit, but in a kind of way it allows people do deal with their fears - by laughing about the threat. docdiesel, on April 29, 2009 [report post] [quote] [reply]
