Know Your AudienceThis cover drew a lot of criticism because people didn’t understand that it was satire. Ironically, this had the opposite effect from what was intended. It actually reinforced some people’s concerns about the then presidential candidate and his wife.

Goal of satire – to bring about change. Satirists are optimists because they believe in the power of people to change themselves and the world for the better.

REMEMBER: Good satire is accessible to both those familiar with the target and those who aren't, because it both builds on a deep knowledge of the target and relies on original material for humor. It often takes considerable effort on its author's part, but rewards its readers richly.
