More on Doonesbury

But this time I corrected the spelling of "fascinated."
I am really looking forward to the Doonesbury fallout today.
I am fascinated to see who ran it and who didn't.
I have to admit, I was surprised when I got my Boston Globe this morning and there was white space, some text explaining why it was not there, and a (Globe) website to see it at. (I just hit Google News to find out that Green Bay News-Chronicle didn't run it, and Tallahassee did.
Both ran explainers.
The Green Bay one: http://www.gogreenbay.com/page.html?article=125417 is really well-done.
Tallahassee is here: http://www.tallahassee.com/mld/democrat/news/opinion/8496151.htm
A Providence Journal article said the ProJo and Dallas Morning News would run it. Mobile (Ala.) ran it, too.
I thought it was a very powerful comic.
Of course, Get Fuzzy just depressed me because I am a Red Sox fan.
What did your local papers do?

PS: Explainer for those who haven't seen it. B.D., a regular character, loses his leg in Iraq, and one of the lines today is "Son of a bitch."
