my one and only rule of cartooning is to try to make a cartoon insightful. now, if i can't make insightful, i tried to make it funny. if i can't make it -- [laughter] if i can't make insightful or funny, you know, make it timely. needless to say, i draw a lot of timely cartoons. this one was actually very time at a couple of months ago when i first drew it. now, you might think i'm being kind of tough on myself, but hell being tough on myself might be all i have going for me. you see i've always had this terrible inferiority complex when it comes to my own work. i realize, after all, there are a lot of cartoonists working today who are better artists than i am and there are plenty of cartoonists who are funnier and more intelligent than me. so suffering as i do from such low cartooning self-esteem i've always tried to compensate for my inadequacies by a work ethic that borders on obsession. now, in light of that i would accept this honor tonight, but not as a recognition of artistic talent, nor as a testament to any inherent wit or wisdom. i will accept this

had previously published anti-semitic cartoons for the service of illustrating some of the cartoons that are routine in much of the arab world when it comes to their view of jews. and that was the right decision to publish the anti-semitic cartoons and it made his decision not to publish the "charlie hebdo" cartoons that much stranger, more curious, in my view. i guess i would say just further to what floyd just said, you can't conduct editorial policy much less foreign policy, as if you are in a harry potter novel where, you know, certain things cannot be named. this is not -- you're entering into kind of a strange moral universe the moment that you do that which is another argument for -- right now we have a conference on violent extremism. but we cannot speak of the violent extremism that we are -- all of us -- aware of being engaged in a struggle with. so is it's a slightly orwellian world. sylvie: i'll be very brief just to clarify. because i don't want to be misunderstood. my personal view is that we had to publish those cartoons and we did. and again, this here. but what i do

and didn't put any of the cartoons in there. and my reaction was disbelief because once not talking about taste anymore. this is what the book was about. and while perhaps you didn't have to publish every one of them it's hard to communicate what was going on if you don't do it. i mean, i had a letter in "the new york times" complaining about the fact that they didn't publish any of the cartoons at issue with respect to what we are talking about today. their stated position was, they have a policy against publishing materials which by their nature are offensive and don't advance public discussion of some issue. my view was that they were newsworthy. how could they not be? and while one could make a determination that in the service of good taste, if you will, not to publish them all publishing none of them seemed to me to depriving the readers of the chance to make a more informed judgment, or at least have a better informed body of knowledge, as to what was going on. now, it may be that it was at the head of cnn who put it the

we already saw that in 2006 when the cartoons were first published in denmark.had a debate about whether we should reprint them. we decided to reprint, there were 12 come and we chose them and we decided that we could not publish them at all. but we didn't want to publish the most offensive ones and also some of them had been totally uninteresting and so other papers decided not to print any of them because they were afraid or because they thought it was a bad idea in the western press and the american newspapers took a very different road than the one we took in europe but in europe some papers decided not to publish them and they had a lengthy discussion and debate on the editorial board and came up with a very good editorial explaining the decision that he would they would give 100,000 pounds to support and on the other hand they said no we are not interested in publishing this. this is not the way of showing our solidarity. we don't find this much. >> do you agree that there would be less obnoxious journalism -- >> i think so. i think you know, you can see w

the cartoon had a double meaning. drawing the line in mississippi. we are not going to kill a trapped animal. and we are against lynching. the cartoon went, in today's parlance viral, and ruth in brooklyn wrote a letter saying -- dear mr. president, i would like to make a bear toy named after you, teddy bear. he got back to her and said madam, you may, but i don't think anybody cares. it's the most ubiquitous toy in history, the teddy bear. you know how many politicians would die to have their symbol be a child's toy? kids with their teddy bears. politicians dream of such glory. if you think it's an easy act william howard taft, his successor, wanted to bubble up some of the -- a bottle of some of the roosevelt magic. he created the billy call toy. none of you know what it looks like. i'm not even sure you can get when on ebay, but maybe. it went nowhere. nobody wanted a possum stuffed toy. something about roosevelt magic and his ability to communicate his bravery as a leadership -- as a leader is just extraordinary. he runs in 1904 and get reelected
