Jerry Holbert is a cartoonist best known for his political cartoons. He has a syndicated editorial comic strip. He received the National Cartoonist Society Editorial Cartoon Award for the year 2000. Holbert grew up in Middletown Township, New Jersey.〔(Jerry Holbert Editorial Cartoons ), United Feature Syndicate. Accessed August 2, 2007. "Born in Middletown, N.J., in 1958, Holbert aspired to cartooning as a young child".〕 He currently works for the ''Boston Herald'' newspaper, where he publishes editorial cartoons. In October 2014, Holbert came under criticism for what many people viewed as a racist depiction of United States President Barack Obama which used the watermelon stereotype: Holbert pictured a recent White House intruder using the president's bathtub while recommending to Obama the use of watermelon-flavored toothpaste. After negative public reaction, Holbert and also the ''Boston Herald'' apologized, and the nationally syndicated version of the cartoon was hastily edited to change the toothpaste flavor to ''raspberry''. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jerry Holbert」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
