Comedy on the Campaign Trail

By Laura Knoy on Tuesday, November 4, 2008.

Political humorists of all stripes have been working at a feverish pace this election to lampoon our would-be leaders, sometimes in ways that have altered the public’s view of a candidate. We’ll look at the role humor has played in this election, from fake news to political cartoons to skits on Saturday Night Live.

Guests

  • Joe Szabo, Political cartoonist, historian, author and president and editorial director of WittyWorld International Features, a publication discussing political cartoons from around the world
  • Robert Thompson, Trustee Professor of Television and Popular Culture at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University
