In January 1967, Capp created “Joanie Phoanie,” a hypocritical, money-hungry folksinger who visited Dogpatch with her slovenly cohorts. The folksinger Joan Baez (b. 1941) charged that the character was a caricature of herself and a “stupid, vulgar satire” of the anti-war movement. After she demanded a retraction, Capp criticized her “protests about others’ rights to protest.” Years later, Baez confessed that the satire stung especially because of her own “confusion about being rich and famous.”
