Elmer Fudd without a gun? It may be hard to picture, but it's a reality.
HBO Max’s new “Looney Tunes Cartoons” features the same classic characters millions of people grew up watching, with one noticeable change.
That means characters like Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam will no longer carry firearms. In fact, Elmer Fudd will ditch his gun and instead carry a scythe in his eternal quest to hunt “wabbits.” “Looney Tunes Cartoon” premiered earlier this month on HBO Max and features several beloved animated Warner Bros. characters. The original"Looney Tunes" debuted in 1930 and the shorts ended in 1969. There will be about 200 new shorts in all.“I always thought, ‘What if Warner Bros. had never stopped making “Looney Tunes” cartoons?’ As much as we possibly could, we treated the production in that way,” he said.

‘New Yorker’ Cartoon Editor Defends Publishing Comic By Tom CottonNEW YORK—Responding to reader outcry by explaining that the magazine was committed to publishing work by people from all political perspectives, New Yorker cartoon editor Emma Allen defended publishing a comic Tuesday by Tom Cotton. “While we might not agree with every word of our cartoonists’ captions and every stroke of their pens, we are committed to placing their views in the corners of our magazine pages,” said Allen, adding that Cotton’s latest commissioned piece may be more political than his normal cartoons featuring his classic character, the Ozark Cave Fish, but it did touch on an important national issue in a different manner than the The New Yorker’s other cartoons. “We hear our readers’ criticisms, but we stand by Senator Cotton’s cartoon. We’re committed to publishing quips and jests from all sides of the political spectrum. Over the years, we’ve published controversial cartoons from dozens of senators, as well as five secretaries of defense, and Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower, George H.W. Bush, and Jimmy Carter. This crudely rendered cartoon may offend some people, but we’re not in the business of silencing voices.” The New Yorker “Goings On About Town” editor similarly defended the magazine’s recommendation of several local Identity Evropa and Patriot Front rallies.
