Bad taste cartoon




The cartoon on this post was posted in 'The Nation', a Bangkok based English newspaper.

It shows a sumo wrestler holding Deaths sythe and riding a tsunami on a surf board. In hindsight, any cartoon about the disaster in Japan is poor taste, but coming the day after and using such inappropriate stereo-typing and you can see why the cartoon was pulled so quickly and why it's difficult to find a copy.

Very poor 'The Nation', maybe a weeks profit should be donated to any Japanese charity and the cartoonist being fired.
