NightSide - Jerry Holbert Discusses His Controversial Editorial Cartoon

BOSTON (CBS) - Jerry Holbert didn't expect his political cartoon, published in today's Boston Herald, to be plastered across the internet this morning. But what he says was an innocent misunderstanding was interpreted by folks from around the country as a blatantly offensive racist joke. The cartoon, which was intended to poke fun at the recent White House intruder, contained a reference that is hard to not see as a racist stereotype. Holbert joins NightSide to discuss his cartoon, and why he was shocked to hear about the backlash it caused.
