A political cartoon is meant to persuade people of a position. By depicting a  certain position as comical or absurd, they convince the reader to consider a particular point of view. Political cartoons are also useful as information. These cartoons often depict current news, current leaders or recent political events, and in this way educate audiences. Finally, political cartoons are meant to be witty and comical, and are designed to entertain readers.
