Here are our most reprinted cartoons of last week (December 27th through December 19th 2020). Five of the cartoons have Christmas themes, eight of the cartoons are about COVID19. As usual, no drawings of Trump or Biden made the Top Ten. No cartoons about foreign issues were popular. There are three ties which is quite unlikely considering the large number of editors downloading cartoons. The Top Ten cartoons are what readers see since only 20% of the cartoons get 80% of the reprints. John Darkow won the week with a Christmas/COVID cartoon, Jeff Koterba had two cartoons in the Top Ten. Great work, gentlemen! Congratulations to the other cartoonists with the most reprinted cartoons of the week: Gary McCoy, Dave Whamond, Steve Sack, Dave Granlund, Bruce Plante, Dave Fitzsimmons and Pat Bagley. Our Top Ten is a measure of how many editors choose to reprint each of our cartoons, from the 62 cartoonists in our CagleCartoons.com syndication package. Just about half of America’s daily, paid circulation newspapers (around 700 papers) subscribe to CagleCartoons.com.
Our reader supported site, Cagle.com, still needs you! Journalism is threatened with the pandemic that has shuttered newspaper advertisers. Some pundits predict that a large percentage of newspapers won’t survive the pandemic economic slump, and as newspapers sink, editorial cartoonists who depend on newspapers sink too, and along with them, our Cagle.com site. The world needs political cartoonists more now than ever. Please consider supporting Cagle.com and visit Cagle.com/heroes. #1 John Darkow wins the week with this Christmas/pandemic cartoon. #2 Gary McCoy is tied for second place with another Christmas Pandemic cartoon. #2 Dave Whamond shares the tie for second place with another Christmas/COVID combo cartoon. #4 Steve Sack takes 4th place with yet another Christmas/COVID combo cartoon. #5 Dave Granlund shares a tie for 5th place with this COVID vaccine cartoon. #5 Bruce Plante shares the tie for 5th place with this vaccine cartoon. #7 Jeff Koterba claims 7th place with a “what a bad year 2020 was” New Years cartoon – a theme that editors love. #8 Dave Fitzsimmons wins 8th place with yet another Christmas/COVID combo cartoon. #9 Pat Bagley ties for 9th place with an oldie that he strategically reposted to the syndication flow. This is the first time I can recall that a reposted oldie made the Top Ten. A heavy snowstorm hit the northeast, and Washington DC this week. #9 Jeff Koterba shares 9th place with this vaccine cartoon, which is Jeff’s second cartoon in the Top Ten this week.
