The Secret Origin of Foghorn Leghorn
 

Cartoon Brew has published Keith Scott's article uncovering the true origins of Warner Brothers' Foghorn Leghorn, which appears in the current edition of Apatoons. Scott debunks the common belief that Foghorn Leghorn was modeled purely on the old-time radio character Senator Claghorn, revealing that another radio character named the Sheriff was the first influence on Foghorn. Scott details how the characters were combined to create Foghorn, and also chronicles the parallel histories of all 3 characters through their respective media.
