Ann Telnaes’s cartoon rejected by the Washington Post. Photograph: Ann TelnaesA cartoonist has quit her job at the Washington Post after an editor rejected her sketch of the newspaper’s owner and other media executives bowing before President-elect Donald Trump.
Ann Telnaes posted a message on Friday on the online platform Substack saying she drew the cartoon showing a group of media executives bowing before Mr Trump while offering him bags of money, including Post owner and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
Ms Telnaes wrote that the cartoon was intended to criticise “billionaire tech and media chief executives who have been doing their best to curry favour with incoming President-elect Trump”.
