CARTOONS of the WEEK: What are rare opportunities for a local editorial cartoonist?

The News-Herald - May 5
A young man who is a native Downriverite appears on "Jeopardy" over a span of three days and wins a total of $33,ooo. What is a rare opportunity for a local editorial cartoonist to give a cartoon a national spin and play off TV's most popular game show?
The Press & Guide - May 5
The Dearborn Animal Shelter has made a lot of news over the past months for its efforts to rescue abandoned and abused animals; but recently the shelter itself needed to be "rescued" from a rat infestation. I took the opportunity to both comment on the situation, and pay tribute to Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, creator of "Rat Fink." I grew up copying and learning from Ed's work and I jumped at the chance to have his most famous character "guest" in this week's cartoon!
That's the Point!
