"Harrison Bergeron" is misprinted as being Ray Bradbury's work in several editions of the most commonly used American Literature textbook published throughout the eighties and nineties. This might be why the short story is mistaken for Bradbury's so often!

"Eep, op, ork, ah, ah!!" ...when cartoons were clever, culturally ironic, and actually entertaining for kids.

Today, it's all crazed characterizations, angry-schizoid antagonists, and bizarre plots - from who knows where! Hmm, maybe now thay have become "culturally reflective."

"Right, Rorge"

Somewhere something went wrong, and cartoons of entertainment were doomed by confused parents. The censorship of violence really doesn't change much. If you stop to think, violence is getting worse.

Is "All Summer In A Day" by Bradbury?

YES! Violence is getting worse. It's even 'hit' the food we eat.
