study the editorial cartoon by john branch. what is the cartoonists purpose in this editorial cartoon? - to warn people about incoming bad weather - to make a satire about how many reporters cover bad weather - to tell readers that proper weather gear is important - to explain that reporters are forced to do risky work
Answer
Brief Explanations:
Editorial cartoons often use satire. Here, while reporters are telling people to stay inside to avoid bad weather, one reporter is hit by another flying reporter. This exaggerated and comical scene is a satire. The other options are not in line with the satirical nature of the cartoon. Warning about bad weather (too literal, no satire element as strong as the correct answer), telling about proper gear (not depicted), explaining forced risky work (not the main satirical point aimed at the number of reporters covering bad weather).
Answer:
to make a satire about how many reporters cover bad weather
