Bush's re-election not good news
The re-election of President Bush dominated British
newspapers Thursday, and many cast impartiality aside
in reporting the result.
"How can 59,054,087 people be so DUMB?" the liberal
Daily Mirror asked in a Page 1 headline. Inside,
pages of coverage were headed "U.S. election disaster."
The Independent bore the front-page headline "Four
more years" on a black page with grim pictures that
included a hooded Iraqi prisoner and an orange-clad
detainee at Guantanamo Bay.
The left-leaning Guardian led its features section
with a black page bearing the tiny words "Oh, God."
Inside, a story described how Bush's victory "catapaulted
liberal Britain into collective depression."
Across Europe, many newspapers expressed dismay at the
prospect of another term for Bush, a president often
regarded as inflexible and unilateralist.
"Oops -- they did it again," Germany's left-leaning
Tageszeitung newspaper said in a front-page English
headline. The cover of the Swiss newsmagazine Facts
called Bush's re-election "Europe's Nightmare."

Definition of Cartoons: caricatures and cartoons are
the same thing. The difference between the two that
I see is this: a caricature is simply a cartoon of
someone or something that the viewer can recognize
as a specific someone or something. As soon as
someone known by the viewer is seen in a cartoon,
it becomes a caricature. Visit www.artschools.com
