...spoof people, Bil has generally used animals: a gossipy hen (Hedda Louella McBrood), a bulldog TV interviewer (Mike Malice), a cow fan dancer (Dorothy LaMoo). He also has a mournful hound-dog named Edward R. Bow-Wow, who delivers historical newscasts over See It Now-Wow.

Once pooh-poohed as mere "press exaggeration," the Mau Mau have already mutilated scores of whites and "loyal" blacks, with their favorite weapon, the panga-a long, machete...
