New York Times Executive Editor Jill Abramson: What's Missing from The Times? "Cartoons."

The New York Times Executive Editor Jill Abramson is interviewed by John Siegenthaler for Al Jazeera. 

The last couple of Qs and As are revealing

What do you think is missing now from The New York Times? 
Cartoons. 
Seriously? 
I mean, well, we've never had cartoons. We run, you know, the review section runs one. 
Political cartoons? 
But we don't have, like, a strip, like "Doonesbury." 
You'd like to see that? 
I don't know. Maybe so. It depends on who's in what.

Hat tip to Matt Wuerker. Thanks, Matt.
