Cartoon Ridicules Palin's Faith
The Washington Post Web site features a political cartoon that mocks Gov. Sarah Palin's faith.
Cartoonist Pat Oliphant takes aim at Palin's Pentecostal beliefs, portraying the vice presidential candidate as speaking gibberish that is incomprehensible even to God.
Kristen Fyfe, a senior writer at the Media Research Center, said this is just the latest evidence of the liberal media bias.
“They are really trying to find just about anything that they can to throw at her to make her seem unappealing or take the bloom off of the rose," she told Family News in Focus.
Washington Post ombudsman Deborah Howell conceded the cartoon was overdoing it and "readers were right to complain."
Tom Minnery, senior vice president for government and public policy at Focus on the Family Action, weighed in during today's Election Video Update.
"If this very repugnant cartoon gets wide play," he said, "it will boost Sarah Palin's popularity, strictly because of the backlash."
