Remembering John McLaughlin

Longtime PBS talking head wrangler John McLaughlin died yesterday at the age of 89. Last weekend, he was missing from his eponymous Group for only the first time in its 34-year run.

The often parodied host of "The McLaughlin Group" made one appearance in my cartoons at the end of 1999. The editors of The Business Journal of Greater Milwaukee told me that the editorial for the week would be some sort of look ahead to 2000 for the region; could I draw something to go with that?

No, these were not regulars on his program.
