I like this website because it's smart, witty and current to the political stories of the day. I appreciate that there are different cartoon artists represented on the site.
But, I am not sure how to verify that these cartoon artists are the "best" in the world, as the site claims. However, it's pretty clear that the site is good for political entertainment and for purchasing the cartoons.
Of course, you have to be up-to-date with the political stories of the day to really appreciate the humor. I think that's what separates a political cartoon from an every-day cartoon.
It's clear that the website is trying to make a profit from selling these political cartoons.
I think the privacy policy is pretty transparent. But unfortunately, many people may not notice to read this "fine print." Here are some key aspects on how the site uses visitor information:
"For each visitor to our Web page, our Web server automatically recognizes only the consumer's domain name, but not the e-mail address (where possible)."
"With respect to Ad Servers: To try and bring you offers that are of interest to you, we have relationships with other companies that we allow to place ads on our Web pages. As a result of your visit to our site, ad server companies may collect information such as your domain type, your IP address and clickstream information."
Do you feel comfortable visiting this site after reading the above statements?
I think you're right in questioning their claim to have cartoons by "the best editorial cartoonists in the WORLD". What I saw is, indeed, funny. But although I did find cartoonists from other countries, I did not find cartoons in foreign languages. I can't believe that only English cartoons are funny!
ReplyDeleteHi Maria! Yes, this is more of a English-only site. And clearly, these statements about being the "best in the world" is to attract people to visit and purchase from that site. HAHA..I wanna see a political cartoon in Portuguese!
