# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page This page features three editorial cartoon templates for readers to complete themselves—a participatory feature titled "Write Your Own Editorials." The top cartoon shows a hearse and two mourners discussing someone's death, with a caption about a prominent figure's passing. The middle cartoon depicts a chaotic scene with people fighting, labeled regarding "a Riot, an act of Vandalism, or a General Strike." The bottom cartoon shows a film director staging a scene with actors fighting while a fox watches—captioned "Director—Bite him like this, see?" The satirical point appears to be mocking how different publications might frame identical events (riots, strikes, fights) differently depending on their political perspective. By asking readers to fill in names and commentary, Judge invites them to consider how narratives can be manipulated through selective framing.
