The fallout from a phone hacking scandal that took down the popular News of the World newspaper in England continues to cloud the future of New Corporation CEO Rupert Murdoch.

A UK parliamentary committee have declared the media mogul "unfit" to run his global media empire, which includes Fox News, The New York Post and The Wall Street Journal. 

Cartoonists from around the world have weighed in the future of Rupert Murdoch. Check out their thoughts in our new Rupert Murdoch cartoon slideshow.  

As we celebrate the one year anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden, critics of the President feel it’s inappropriate for him to take a victory lap. They’re especially miffed at Obama for suggesting that his Republican opponent, Mitt Romney, wouldn’t have taken the same course of action.

John McCain recently said, “You Know the Thing About Heroes? They Don’t Brag.” Romney, when asked by a reporter if he would have made the call to launch the raid, said “of course” he would have. “Even Jimmy Carter would have given that order.”

Here are a handful of cartoons about Obama’s “bragging rights." What do you think? Comment below or drop us a note on our Facebook page…

Today marks the one year anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden, killed by Navy SEALs in a bold raid ordered by President Obama against the judgement of some of his top advisors. 

Cartoonists across the globe weighed in on the monumental news, and we've collected the best here in our Osama in Laden Anniversary cartoon slideshow. 

The Secret Service sex scandal continues to hold the interest of readers looking for salacious tales of government employees chartered to protect the president looking for a bit of fun on the side. As a cartoonist, that just means more opportunities to go back to the ink well and come up with more ideas. Here's my latest, on the media's obsession with this story...

As a note to any aspiring cartoonists out there, if there's a sex scandal, and you have to draw someone with their pants down, always draw hearts on their boxers...

My final cartoon is a warning to all the guys out there watching news coverage of the scandal with your wife. Think before you speak...

On this day 37 years ago, Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam, was captured by the People's Army of Vietnam and the National Liberation Front. The event market the end of the Vietnam War and the start of formal reunification of Vietnam into a communist state.  

One of the most famous images of the 20th century is this photo by Dutch journalist Hubert van Es showing Americans trying desperately to secure a seat on one of the last helicopters evacuating people to U.S. Navy ships off the coast of Vietnam.  

Cartoonists are visual creatures, so it makes sense that this iconic image of desperation has been used and twisted in a number of cartoons over the years. Here are some examples from our archives...

John Edwards faced his first week on trial on charges of corruption for using campaign funds to cover-up a love affair with pregnant mistress Rielle Hunter during his 2008 campaign for president. The trial has been every bit as salacious as people expected, with Edwards former assistant, Andrew Young, accusing Edwards of calling Hunter a "crazy slut" and claiming he feared Edwards might kill him to keep the truth a secret. He also revealed when Edwards needed to reach out and contact his mistress, the former senator signaled for the “Bat phone.”

Personally, I think Edwards is a disgrace and makes me cringe when I think about his story. But he faces 30 years in prison, which I think is a bit harsh, considering Arnold Schwarzenegger kept his love child a secret for 10 years while he was governor, and he's free to return to his former movie star days.

Biden Alert! Speaking about the Obama administration’s foreign policy at New York University, Vice President delivered a snicker-worthy line when he said, “I promise you, the president has a big stick.”

If it wasn’t desperate enough that Newt Gingrich made Delaware his Waterloo, Newt was completely routed last night by Mitt Romney in all five primaries. Gingrich plans to move on to North Carolina, who holds their primary next Tuesday, but he did finally indicate that over the next couple of days, his campaign is “going to look realistically at where we’re at.”
