Humor and satire in W. Shakespeare's comedies contents

Conclusion.
The comic is among us and journalism cannot do without satire and humor. Satirical genres are very effective, this is due, first of all, to the fact that they create a visible image of a negative phenomenon that in one way or another affects the interests of entire social groups, and often the whole society. This is a very important feature of satire: even in cases where individual images of specific carriers of evil (for example, deputies) are brought to the fore, a portrait of the phenomenon, merged together from subject-artistic and logical-journalistic images, must necessarily emerge through them.
In the course of the study, we came to the conclusion that the subject of satire and humor concerns both politics and public life, and the topics of spirituality, culture, etc.
In general, today's reader and viewer for the most part wants to be informed by the media - about 67% of the respondents answered that they expect information from the media, and only about a tenth of the respondents agree on the educational role of the "fourth power". Nevertheless, analyzing the print media, one can easily see that many of them (the so-called opposition press is especially distinguished by this, but quite semi-official publications also sin) often do not use the enormous opportunities of the satirical genre precisely in shaping public opinion. After all, most of the high-profile scandals covered by our newspapers are frankly political in nature! And the “fried” facts that journalists regale us with (now it’s not about whose interests this is being done) are quite “ pulling ”, for example, for a feuilleton. A considerable amount of time on the air both on weekends and on weekdays is occupied by various humorous shows. A considerable number of hours a person spends on them. In recent years, humor in all its manifestations has flourished. We are pleased with humorous programs, various pranks. Gradually, this phenomenon moves into life. Many holidays and anniversaries are necessarily accompanied by a humorous program. Everything will be there: a birthday prank, various jokes, and elements of black humor. For some reason, it is black humor that is becoming increasingly popular. It infiltrates newspapers, radio, television and our lives.
In the end, I would like to quote the words of Goethe: “Where he has a joke, a problem may be hidden. But a joke sometimes solves a problem.”
