Satiretegning
Satiretegning består i almindelighed af aktuelle revsende aviskommentarer til tidens begivenheder i tegnet form, fortrinsvis om begivenheder af politisk art. Der kan være tale om enkeltstående tegninger gerne med en dialog som undertekst, eller om faste tegneserier, som de i Danmark kendte: "Statsministeren", "Egoland" og (med amerikansk stof) "Doonesbury" (i dagbladet Information).
For at fortjene betegnelsen satiretegning skal den have skarp brod og en klar pointe, og den skal præcist sætte fingeren på et ømt punkt.
Historisk har satiretegninger været trykt i "julehæfter", såsom Svikmøllen og Blæksprutten.

Guiteau cartoon2.jpg
Political cartoon created for the cover of Puck Magazine on July 13, 1881. The cartoon shows Charles J. Guiteau with a gun, and a note that reads "AN OFFICE OR YOUR LIFE!". The caption reads: "A Model Office Seeker". It is accompanied by a quote: "I am a lawyer, a theologian, and a politician" - Charles J. Guiteau. Guiteau believed himself to be largely responsible for Garfield's election to president, and demanded an ambassadorship in return.
