Ryan Tuck Quotations

The point of any cartoon in any newspaper is to challenge belief systems. We knew it would offend, but that doesn't make it the explicit goal of the cartoon.

We're not apologizing for printing the cartoon. I do personally to any caller, letter-writer, anybody that comes in. We're not attempting to offend a certain ethnicity, race, or religion. It just so happens in this case that one was offended, and we did know that going in.

The rivalry is very much alive. You see a Duke shirt on Franklin Street on a Friday night and they are going to get comments.
