TV Turnoff Week (Late)
10 06 20091. The purpose of the poster is to not only advertise for TV Turnoff Week, but to do it in a humorous manner while at the same time, sarcastically making social commentary.
2. The poster creates a highly sarcastic and satirical tone. The pictures (parodying an in-flight saftey card) get the message across, but the jokes in the text are what make it hysterical- in particular, number four of panel one; “If your legs still work try to peel yourself out of the chair.”
3. It adds to the affectiveness by making it more humorous and satirical, but doesn’t add to the messege much.
