Chris Muir has removed the banner asking readers to help get Day By Day syndicated. And this strip appears on the Day By Day page today...
Fascinating...
Posted by mhking at May 20, 2004 06:26 AMI'd like to see Chris' strip on the comics page not only because he's brilliant, but for a little balance. Trudeau's strip is on the comics pages and a lot of inane new leftward slanting strips are slowly infiltrating the once funny comic page. They're smarmy and obviously their creators think everyone agrees with their slanted points of view.
Smart syndicators should know that the kind of people their advertisers are desperately trying to reach are reading the blogosphere by the tens of thousands. Sullivan alone claims 100,000 hits per day. Reynold probably an equal or higher number. These readers are mostly young, hip professionals who can separate the wheat from the chaff.
These blogs often link daybyday to their readers.
Good luck to Chris. He deserves recognition.
