I think the cartoonist has subtly portrayed a satirical take on the extensive coverage of the trial. Kudos to him for capturing the information/emotion overload from the trial without taking sides.

To be very honest, using a domestic abuse case as a doodle for an ad doesn’t make sense at all.
Talking about the case, Johnny Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard after she published a column in the Washington Post in the year 2018. In the column, she indirectly accused him of abusing her.
