Written Editorials vs. Cartoons

Blog #7

1. The Charlotte Observer teased Cam Newton through an editorial cartoon of him performing his famous Superman touchdown celebration only to reveal a Hello Kitty logo on his chest.

2. The written editorial explains when, where,what happened and the exposure since the cartoon and the cartoon illustrates Newton in the act. It also gives comments and opinions from others.The author thinks that the cartoon is not helping Newton move on and the cartoonist thinks that the idea is humorous.

3. The editorials are alike because they both entertain and joke about Newton. The editorials are different because the written editorial criticizes Newton while the cartoon just illustrates the subject.

4. The written editorial is more effective at proving its' point because it explains the topic, criticizes Newton and includes the views of others so we get a full description of the action.

5. The benefit of drawing a cartoon vs. a written editorial is that the idea can be seen to get a good understanding of the topic, but it can't give details or quotes that are important in getting the full idea of the topic.
