ScrappleFace Offers $10 for Proof Doonesbury is 'Comic'

(2004-02-25) -- Scott Ott, editor-in-chief of the daily news satire site ScrappleFace.com, today announced a $10 reward to anyone who could prove that Doonesbury is a "comic" strip.

The lucrative contest comes in response to an offer by Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau to donate $10,000 to the U.S.O. on behalf of anyone who could prove that George W. Bush served in the Alabama Air National Guard. Mr. Bush now serves as Commander-in-Chief of all U.S. military forces.

Mr. Ott challenged the readers of ScrappleFace to prove that Doonesbury fits the following definition of "comic"...
1) of, relating to, or marked by comedy;
2) causing laughter or amusement;
3) FUNNY
