This is what Wikipedia has to say about the cartoon feature in the Onion: An editorial cartoon <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editorial_cartoon> drawn by "Kelly", a fictional character; the cartoons are actually the work of Ward Sutton <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Sutton>.[37]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion#cite_note-kelly-36> The comic—the most controversial feature in *The Onion*[9]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion#cite_note-DS-8>—is a deadpan parody of conservative cartoons, as well as editorial cartoon conventions in general.[37]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion#cite_note-kelly-36> Roughly half of the cartoons feature the Statue of Liberty<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Liberty>, usually shedding a single tear.
And here's what they say about Ward Sutton: He also illustrates and writes a cartoon for *The Onion<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Onion> * under the pseudonym of 'Kelly', depicting the far-fetched Republican and Fundamentalist Christian one-panels of a middle-aged cartoonist. According to Onion President Sean Mills in an interview with *Wikinews<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikinews> *, the cartoon has generated "a lot of heat."[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Sutton#cite_note-DS-0> "He has a very unique take on what is going on in the world," said Mills, "and it does tend to upset some people, but that’s the job of an editorial cartoonist, to be a provocateur."
