Mallard Fillmore is a newspaper comic strip with a conservative point of view, by cartoonist Bruce Tinsley. It appears in about four hundred U. S. newspapers. The title character is in fact a mallard duck. It first appeared in the Charlottesville, Va Daily Progress, but was dropped when Tinsley refused to tone down its conservative politics; it was subsequently picked up by The Washington Times.[1]
During the week of June 10, 2002 the strip dealt with the success of home-schooled students.[2]
Controversies
The January 4, 2005 cartoon carried a picture of a television executive, which some readers felt was a Jewish caricature.[3]
On December 4, 2006, Bruce Tinsley was arrested in florida for driving under the influence.[4]
