Marvin Gay(e) Sr. : an antisemite? by mark 03/08/2007, 6:37pm PST
Anti-Antisemitism fever is running so hot you'd think the whole world was the Questionable Content forums! Here is a comic I did for a local music magazine I write for:

Here is the response I got from my editor:


hey mark.

thanks! sorry to say, but i don't think we can run the hitler as marvin gaye sr. comic. i don't even want to get in to why we can't run something like that. i just think it would cause too much of a problem with some of our readers.





Upon explaining that it is not Hitler:


i still think it's too offensive. it wasn't just my decision but a collective office thing.
i'm sorry, but we just have to be weary of what we publish. especially in a city like calgary.
