Dogging the dirt, sloe-eyed Sabras and a racist cartoon on weei.com

David Scott wonders how Steve Silva keeps his job at the Globe, notes that Michael Gee now has a blog and ponders what's funny about a cartoon showing a black sportswriter diving into a crowd of Klan members.

How so?

Admittedly, I don't know what the 'EEI inside story was that prompted the cartoon (I'm at work when "The View" with Arnold and Holley is on), but you're aware that the cartoonist is a black guy, no? It seems that this Scott guy isn't aware of it:

Since when are KKK cartoons humorous? Especially at racially sensitive WEEI which is, as you know, so immersed in Boston’s black community.

How this remains on an Entercom-owned station’s site, is simply beyond me. Humor is one thing. Hatred is quite another.
