His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Meanwhile, in California, most counties will start mailing ballots to more than 20 million registered voters in the state starting next week. California is one of nine states that will send ballots to all registered voters by mail, a decision prompted by the ongoing pandemic. President Trump has lodged repeated attacks on voting by mail and sought to sow doubts about the integrity of the November election. At the first presidential debate on Tuesday, he once again falsely claimed that voting by mail is rife with fraud and refused to say he would accept the results of the election. President Trump also repeatedly interrupted, personally attacked and talked over his Democratic presidential rival, Joe Biden, who called him “a clown” and told him to “shut up, man.” The Commission on Presidential Debates said that it will make changes to the format to “ensure a more orderly discussion” prior to the next showdown between the two rivals. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED senior editor of politics and government\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guy Marzorati, KQED politics and government reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Older and Overlooked” KQED Series Reveals Fire Danger to Seniors\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As firefighters continue to battle wildfires that have burned millions of acres in California, an investigation by KQED and CalMatters has found roughly two million people aged 65 and older live in areas at high risk for wildfires.

The annual three day festival celebrates roots music traditions across the country and has historically drawn more than 750-thousand attendees. Due to the ongoing global pandemic, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass will celebrate its 20th anniversary online this year. The all-virtual festival this year will kick off Saturday, featuring performances by Emmylou Harris, The McCrary Sisters and Shakey Graves, as well as information on how to donate to artists affected by COVID-19.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
