In an interview with Fox, political cartoonist Michael Ramirez sounded off on The Washington Post's decision to pull his work mocking Hamas following liberal backlash.
Michael Ramirez, the political cartoonist whose work mocking Hamas was pulled by The Washington Post following internal and external backlash, is speaking out about the 'unfortunate' episode restricting free speech. The cartoon titled 'Human shields' depicted the terrorist group's spokesperson saying, 'How dare Israel attack civilians,' while a frightened-looking woman and four small children remain bound with rope to his body.
Ramirez said Shipley 'begged' him not to walk away over the deletion. 'He knew that I wasn't happy with it… And he begged me not to quit,' Ramirez said. 'And honestly, I thought about the consequences of that. If I quit, then the cancel culture people win because they basically exorcise the Washington Post of my cartoon, and I didn't want to give them that luxury.
