In recent years, the US fake news program The Daily Show with Jon
Stewart has become a surprisingly important source of information,
conversation, and commentary about public affairs. Perhaps more
surprisingly, so-called 'fake news' is now a truly global
phenomenon, with various forms of news parody and political satire
programming appearing throughout the world. This collection of
innovative chapters takes a close and critical look at global news
parody from a wide range of countries including the USA and the UK,
Italy and France, Hungary and Romania, Israel and Palestine, Iran
and India, Australia, Germany, and Denmark. Traversing a range of
national cultures, political systems, and programming forms, News
Parody and Political Satire Across the Globe offers insight into
the central and perhaps controversial role that news parody has
come to play in the world, and explores the multiple forces that
enable and constrain its performance. It will help readers to
better understand the intersections of journalism, politics, and
comedy as they take shape across the globe in a variety of
political and media systems. This book was originally published as
a special issue of the journal Popular Communication.
