Andertoons (AMS) takes a daring step, making a joke based on the reader having a good vocabulary, but which is funnier if the reader has just enough of a good vocabulary to know what the word means and to feel somewhat proud of that.
The article from The Daily Cartoonist, published on December 1, 2024, discusses the importance of media literacy through the lens of editorial cartoons. It highlights how cartoonists like Mike Luckovich, Steve Breen, and Kevin Siers address current events and societal issues in their work, emphasizing the role of humor and satire in fostering critical thinking.

The article underscores the need for media literacy education, especially in an era where misinformation can spread rapidly, and suggests that editorial cartoons serve as an accessible entry point for discussing complex topics like media manipulation and the importance of fact-checking.
