Examples of Satire

1. I think Donald Trump more than qualifies as satire. His constant use of criticism towards others is jaw dropping. Not only is he known for exposing others, but it is ironic how he is trying to "make America great again", yet he seems to be causing this constant issue with not keeping his rude, unnecessary comments to himself. Although he is liked for speaking is mind, he makes others look like he is superior by pointing out their flaws and making it seem like he's done nothing wrong.

2. Another use of satire is TMZ. TMZ is built on exposing gossip about celebrities and trying to ridicule them. Their use of irony is consistent by causing problems that didn't exist based on rumors that were never true. TMZ hides this by trying to add humor to the situation they started.

3. I would have to say this is satire because Ellen seems to be making fun of Adele. Although she only does it for laughs, I certainly think this is funny. She finds the humor in a serious situation.
