# "Judging the News" - Judge Magazine, June 12, 1923 This satirical page critiques contemporary news stories through brief commentary and cartoons. The main cartoon depicts two men in formal wear during a rainstorm, with the caption "At a Very Late Hour Last Night—Married Film Actor (to double)—Just step inside the door—don't answer her—and protect your head and face." This appears to mock Hollywood marital infidelity scandals common in 1920s tabloids. The joke suggests a married actor instructing his body double to take his place at home to avoid his wife—satirizing both the absurdity of celebrity scandals and the era's moral anxieties about Hollywood. The page's other brief commentary items reference dry candidates, international treaties, and a New York secretary of state trial, using sardonic tone typical of Judge's political satire.
