Funny Political Comics – Understanding the Realm of Political Comics

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: Greg Rudolph

Twitter has become a ubiquitous communication, marketing and customer service medium. It is also an excellent search engine and can help one find trending discussions on current events. Twitter users can track trends and commentary not only through text based tweets but through images; especially political cartoons. There are a number of international cartoonists on Twitter and as news breaks their unique viewpoints can be found in the new cartoons they post there. Many cartoonists embed their cartoons directly into their tweets, while others link to their websites and tweet to their followers with periodic updates. Whatever one's political leanings, Twitter can be a useful resource for up-to-the-minute political satire.

There are many ways to find funny and thought provoking political cartoons on Twitter depending on how one conducts a search. Searching by the hash tag #political #cartoons allows the user to find links to Kindle e-books of political cartoons. Users can also search for cartoonists who are tweeting with hash tags that represent current topics, such as #FiscalCliff. Users can vary their hash tag searches to look for specific items. A search for #congress cartoons links to a collection of the best of Star Tribune Editorial Cartoonist Steve Sack; which features many cartoons with satirical looks at the U.S. Congress and other political topics.

While finding current cartoons is easy on Twitter, users can find archives as well. A search for political cartoon archives on Twitter leads to several sources. The 2012 U.S. Presidential Election gave cartoonists and cartoon syndicates a great opportunity to reach large audiences who were concerned about top issues of the day such as unemployment, the economy and taxes. This is but one archived topic that can be found via Twitter. Another that is particularly fascinating is a link to the National World War II Museum's section on Dr. Seuss produced cartoons. Many people don't know that Dr. Seuss, famous for his Cat in the Hat and other children's books, created over 400 political cartoons during WWII.

A search for international political cartoons conducted on Twitter using hash tags can yield some interesting results. Some of the resources users can explore are from educational institutions who analyze modern political cartoons as part of their mission to promote democratic values. One such organization, The Center for Global Communications Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, recently tweeted about @IranMedia's analysis of #Iran #media #political #cartoons, via Iranmediaresearch.org's blog. There are also archives available from various Arab cartoonists that feature cartoons they produced during the Arab Spring. Searching for "caricaturas" and "caricaturas politicas" brings one to a large collection of Mexican political cartoons courtesy of Dominio Ciudadno. While Twitter can translate tweets, the reader will need to know some Spanish to read Spanish cartoon captions and dialogue. Regardless, the drawings are highly expressive and the context and artistry usually allows for them to be understood. The reference to this particular collection of satirical drawings was tweeted in a link that lead to a section of over 281,000 cartoons on the Dominio Ciudadno site.

Twitter offers many ways to enjoy political discussion and opinion. Using Twitter as a search engine to find current political cartoons and archives from important historical periods can yield some interesting finds. One can also look for the Twitter handles of the newspapers in one's area to see which local and national cartoonists' pages might be featured. Through the use of Twitter favorites and lists cartoon buffs can build a fun and informative collection of political satire.
