Person of the Day
by Molly McCall

For decades, editorial cartoonist Steve Brodner has mocked, teased, panned, and occasionally praised creatures of the public realm. Neither politician, nor media mogul, nor cultural icon has escaped his sharp-witted, jowly sketches, and nearly every major periodical has hosted his work. Now, we can catch the "satirical illustrator" daily in this Monday-to-Friday update from the site Drawger. In past months, everyone from Osama bin Laden to Barry Bonds has skulked through Person of the Day. Some lucky types even score a personalized title: On January 20, Simon Cowell became the "Ersatz Person of the Day" and February 16 marked the "Hillary War Vote Explanation of the Day." Yes, this stuff is unabashedly political. The guy's not short on opinions. But at least he's a bipartisan of bile; power brokers and blabbermouths from across the political spectrum have suffered their likeness in his work. Assuming that Brodner stays Brodner, they will continue to for a long time to come, too.
