She introduces the oil spill cartoons thus:

"A lot of very busy, important sites have linked to me in the past for some reason, but I was amused, and, yes, a little concerned, when I was linked on Google’s finance page for BP Oil for my recent cartoon on them. I loved the high volume traffic from this, but there’s a reason editorial cartoons are on the OPINION page, and not in the Business section! I mean, I was literally one of the first 2 or 3 cartoonists to have a cartoon out on the oil spill, since I work on the weekend and since I can’t resist any green issues. So I was furious at British Petroleum. But still, I am a capitalist, and it makes me sad that something I might do would end up on their finance page, when they are trying to make money…

So, anyway, back to the cartoons for this week’s LA Times roundup. (I explain how and why I do this roundup over here. Because the Times needs me, they really, really need me.) As I promised last week, we have a theme this week of the oil spill disaster. There were some really great, moving cartoons, and even the usual old-fashioned guys who still think the world is just black and white, look good with this subject."
