<span>Satire is a genre of
literature in which individuals, corporation, government or society are ridiculed
in purpose of constructive social criticism, using wit to draw attention to
both particular and wider issues in society in order to correct or shape
opinions and behavior. But, satire can’t be effective in shaping behavior or
opinions if the audience is always in on the joke and never being targeted. The
effectiveness of satiric work is mirrored in sole comprehension of the targeted
group of individuals that they are wrong, and should correct their opinions and
behavior. Many satiric writers believe that satires should be medicine
disguised as candy, so it would be easier for targeted group to accept it. If
only non-targeted audience comprehend the joke (main idea of satiric work), the
satire would not be effective as they agree with author’s criticism and there
is no need for them to correct their behavior nor their opinions.</span>
