“It’s huge that the creator of something so many people found joy in reveals himself as a racist,” Jones told The Post, adding: “‘Dilbert’ is probably among the last of the big comic strips in a dying industry — it’s a household word.” Lalo Alcaraz, an editorial cartoonist for Andrews McMeel Syndication, drew the hand of Adams erasing “Dilbert” on the comics page. “Besides; somebody had to make a joke out of it, because Scott certainly isn’t funny anymore.” Peterson, a retired editor, told The Post that he wished individual newspaper editors would “take responsibility” for what is in their newspapers. Bell added that he plans to spoof “Dilbert” in upcoming cartoons. Such a path is impractical, immoral and illegal.” On Saturday, he texted The Post about what his client list might be: “By Monday, around zero.” In 1998, Adams received the prestigious Reuben Award as outstanding cartoonist from the National Cartoonists Society.

But if Adams is entitled to his opinions, so are his readers and business partners. Adams successfully turned this kind of contrarian populism into a brand that extended beyond the comic strip to merchandise, self-help and business books, and a lucrative speaking career. And it was certainly a curious choice on the part of Rasmussen, a data collection outfit closely aligned with right wing causes and promoter of conservative media narratives, to poll on this question in the first place. Adams apparently expects people to believe that his advice comes not from a place of personal racism, but as a logical reaction to the expressed sentiments in that poll.
