I'm a muslim and I found most of cartoons by Charlie Hebdo funny, however the cartoon about the prophet didn't upset me at all but was not funny. It did however trigger something: this is how people actually see this religion, a bomb on a prophet's head. The reality is what makes something funny or not.
Should this be the end of making funny of anything or raising questions/ideas, no. However a journalist's job is not to upset people but to cross the line then come back and bring some people with him/her: convince.
All my condolences to those affected by this tragedy from Ottawa, Canada.
- vixen99 12y agoIt's not a journalist's job to upset people? What a strange opinion and who do you suppose should judge?
- meapix 12y agoit is still an opinion (you know free speech). I assume in a civilized world, when you make a statement that upset somebody, you apologize. Something like http://xkcd.com/814 http://xkcd.com/814
