Plagiarist Gary Johnson uses Houston Chronicle editorial cartoon without permission.
First off, Johnson is delusional for thinking he has any chance of getting elected.
Second, he'd get an "F" if he was one of my students and he cheated like this.
Third, is he really this stupid, exposing himself to a lawsuit?
Gary Johnson changes, uses Houston Chronicle editorial cartoon without permission
Wednesday, September 14, 2016
A Facebook post from Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson posted Wednesday morning featured a cartoon by Houston Chronicle cartoonist Nick Anderson. But, the wording had been altered and credit to Anderson was removed.
The post went up Wednesday morning. Several friends tagged Anderson on Facebook, who immediately tweeted in response.
"@GovGaryJohnson is a thief. His official FB page stole my art, crossed out my name and changed the words #ruleoflaw," Anderson tweeted.
Johnson's post was shared 30,000 times and elicited nearly 1,000 comments within four hours.
The original cartoon, published in November 2014 ahead of the Texas gubernatorial election, showed a large crowd of people saying, "We didn't vote because it wouldn't make a difference." That cartoon had Anderson's signature and The Houston Chronicle name in the upper right corner.
