Iranians and Israelis, Americans, Russians and Chinese, Europeans and Africans Gather to Say a "Good Word"

HOD HASHARON, Israel, February 25/PRNewswire/ -- BuzziNews is the world's first and only online journal reporting exclusively in cartoons. Cartoonists come together from around the world and communicate their positive message to a global audience. The portal has already attracted world-renowned illustrators from 18 countries who have sent in their cartoons.

A "Good Word" on George Bush, Charlie Chaplin, Jerusalem, MySpace, cell phones, Elvis, and even Ahmadinejad - these are only some of the topics chosen by cartoonists.

The portal has already been visited by surfers from 89 countries and approximately 620 cities worldwide. The cartoons already on the site originate from China, Singapore, Poland, Uzbekistan, Belgium, Cameroon, USA, Iran, Israel, Cuba, Romania, Macedonia, Russia, Greece, Thailand, Bulgaria, Brazil and Australia.

Marcin Bondarowicz, Polish cartoonist, said: "In my work humor is not an end in itself but rather a way of drawing attention to the issue in an enticing way. So it has been to my extreme pleasure to have discovered the "Good Word" competition".

BuzziNews established a panel of 4 judges. The Judges are Kumar Pran, renowned veteran cartoonist from India, Chris Murman, reviewer and features editor at ComicsBulletin.com from Texas, Mr. Marko Ajdaric, editor of Neorama dos Quadrinhos, the widest 9th art newsletter in the world, and LA area artist, creator of "Chicken Boy", Stuart Rapeport.

"As a cartoonist my work tends to be sarcastic and negative, so participating in an event focusing on the positive seemed like a challenge," says Stuart Rapeport, a "Good Word" competition judge. "Doing something meaningful, hard-edge and positive all at the same time, that's a good idea."
