Catharsis - release from social order: we release it though humor - satire. Movies, tv shows realistic: mirrors to society, censorship: not usually, only the effect. Expressive view: expresses the feelings of the artist"s experience, sincere, censorship: none. Ex; after school special on south park: censorship: yes. Aesthetic view: if the message is disliked or if it doesn"t have a message: well made art to entertain/please, censorship: none. Gentle: quite funny, soft and doesn"t hurt anyone, goal: to get some laughs target: human characteristics- general tone: general and tolerate - we are all like this. Vitriolic: very angry and very bitter, often not very funny, goal: to change something through anger target: specific and identifiable tone: accusing - you are like this. How specific is the target? if it"s more general, it"s gentle. Ex; human population if it"s more specific, more identifiable, it"s vitriolic.
