Michael Ramirez has another award to put alongside his two Pulitzers. The IBD Editorials cartoonist was recognized by his peers as 2009’s Outstanding Editorial Cartoonist, winning the coveted Reuben.

Congratulations, Michael. You are one of the indispensable voices in today’s media, and we’re glad that your peers recognize that. Well done, sir!
