Trudeau Trivia: Garry Trudeau’s “Doonesbury” strip marks its 20th anniversary in syndication. In a Newsweek cover story, Trudeau says he is writing a “MASH-like” black comedy with director Alan Pakula about AIDS researchers and also reveals that he works half a day each week at a New York City center for the homeless. Trudeau says that he would have loved to have done some “Doonesbury” strips about how NBC ousted his wife, Jane Pauley, from the “Today” show but he has banned himself from using Pauley and her competitors, such as Connie Chung, as subjects.
