Editorial Cartooning
Editorial Cartoon is an illustration expressing opinion and interpretation. It is also called a “wordless editorial”.
Editorial cartoon uses pictures and text to make a statement. Editorial cartoons express opinions about a wide range of topics in the news, such as politics or culture.
Editorial cartoonists often use images of well-known people, places and things to send a message.
Editorial cartoons can be challenging because you often need background knowledge to understand them.

UNDERSTANDING EDITORIAL CARTOON
Things to consider in editorial cartooning:
Things to consider in editorial cartooning:
Symbolism – the use of symbols to signify ideas and qualities, by giving them symbolic meanings that are different from their literal sense.
Stereotyping – a fixed, over generalized belief about a particular group or class of people.
Exaggeration – cartoonists overdo, or exaggerate, the physical characteristics of people or things in order to make a point.
Humor – being funny except in tragic situations.
Analogy – a comparison between two unlike things that share some characteristics. By comparing a complex issue or situation with a more familiar one, cartoonists can help their readers see it in a different light.
Techniques on how to interpret any editorial cartoon.
1. First, look at the images and text in the cartoon and describe what you see. What if anything, looks familiar? What words, if any, are included with any pictures? What do they add to the cartoon?
2. Next, search for the BIGGER picture—the meaning of the cartoon. What is the main point the cartoonist is trying to convey? Is anything exaggerated in the cartoon? If so, why might that be?
3 . Ask students to think about what has happened in the past and what is happening in the present as it relates to the cartoon. What connections or comparisons is the artist of the cartoon trying to show you?
