MOLLIE HEMINGWAY: The 10 Stupidest Things About The Post’s Cartoon Portraying Cruz’s Children As Monkeys. Here’s #3: “As if going after children weren’t enough, Telnaes thought it would be a grand idea to portray the daughters of the first Hispanic senator from Texas as monkeys. I’m not sure if the dehumanization was done because of that, because of their father’s politics or some other reason, but it compounds the error in ways that make you wonder how in the heck the cartoon received editorial approval from The Washington Post.” Plus: “If your cartoon doesn’t work on its own, scrap the idea. Also if it’s racist, scrap it.”
