video published on the Herald Sun's web site ."She's powerfully built. She wears these outrageous costumes when she plays tennis. She is interesting to draw." "This whole business that I'm some sort of racist calling on racial cartoons from the past — it's just made up," Knight said."The cartoon was about her behavior on the day." Knight said he had to suspend his Twitter account because of the onslaught he faced after the cartoon was published.
" In its ruling, the Australian Press Council said it had considered complaints about how the women were depicted and"that the cartoon should be considered in the context of the history of caricatures based on race and historical racist depictions of African Americans.
