Terminology

Is the term "spokestoon" really used only for pre-existing cartoon characters used in advertising? Googling for "spokestoon" shows that it's used to describe any cartoon character that represents a product. —tregoweth 18:24, Dec 25, 2004 (UTC)

Why is this written with an entirely unrealistic viewpoint?

This is written as if cartoon characters have agency. Donald Duck joined the war effort? Cartoon characters are hired? The entire article is questionable. 140.141.192.46 (talk) 04:19, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article feels old. I tried to update it a bit but there are quite a few issues. Nightheight (talk) 07:22, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
