Can you answer this question?
Here are some clues to help you...

A. I am a cartoonist. My comic strip, "The Boondocks," has run in newspapers across the country since 1999. Today, it appears in more than 250 newspapers.

B. "The Boondocks" is about two African American boys named Riley and Huey, who moved from the inner city to the suburbs. Not everyone is a fan of my work. I often use my comic strip to make strong statements about politics. I have also criticized and made fun of many famous people, from President Bush to Sean "Puffy" Combs. Some newspapers even print my strip on the Op-Ed page instead of the comics page.

C. Now, my comic strip is moving to television. "The Boondocks" began running on Cartoon Network on November 6. The cartoon is not meant for young people, however. It runs late at night on the program "Adult Swim," which features cartoons for adults. This way, I can continue to voice my political views. Does "The Boondocks" run in your newspaper?
