Bad news: Top ten cartoons of the week

by Daryl Cagle
These days, we always seem to be surrounded by bad news. The conflict in Israel. Mass shootings across the country. A political system that never seems to work. 

Several of our most popular cartoons this week centered around that theme, including Chris Weyant's touching piece about a father reading at night to her daughter. If only we could all just live happily ever after.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:
