MOLLY IVINS Here’s to the brave, wonderful Molly; happy warrior, caring, courageous, crusading journalist who has devoted a rich life to exposing corruption, hypocrisy, and cruelty in high places, especially these last six dark years in America. She’s now been hospitalized with cancer for the third time. This post and, I’m sure, all of us who have illustrated her work, and have been inspired by it, send her our thoughts and prayers. Nice tribute piece by RJ Eskow.
