Truth According To Cartoons

The way we see the world is reflected in the media...or we come to see the world in the way that the media portrays it. I'm not sure which is the case; maybe it's a little bit of both.

Today you are going to search cartoons and select three. For each cartoon you select, you are going to say:
1) what it means/ what it is saying about the topic
2) if you agree with that sentiment
3) where you found it

Your blog will be called "Cartoon Reality" and it will have 3 cartoons plus the comments described above.

Here's one sample:


*This cartoon is suggesting that even though the media is reporting that the recession is over, not everyone is back on their feet financially. Just because big corporations are reporting profits, everything is not back to normal. People who've lost their jobs have still lost their savings, their homes, their general standard of living.

**I agree with the idea in this cartoon. It's great that car makers and retail stores are earning profits, but many people have lost so much from being out of work that it will take years for them to rebuild "normal" lives.

**This cartoon was created by Randy Bish and it appeared in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. I found this cartoon at PoliticalCartoons.com
