User:BjornRobinson/Evaluate an Article

The article I am evaluating is “Political Satire”. The lead contains a thorough definition of the term and what its purpose is in society. The content is good overall and provides plenty of examples of political satire. It could use more data and statistics on the overall effects of it both on the audience and their political participation, and the reputation of the figures or organizations being represented in the satire. The sources are both recent and dated which is good in this case as it provides various examples of political satire from different time periods to illustrate the evolution of it. Overall, the article does a good job on going into depth on the different aspects of political satire, but could use more numerical data to support the claims that it affects political participation.
