Satire examples:
- a magazine article exaggerating the public’s extreme reaction to a celebrity (a)
- a funny political cartoon exposing the flaws in a new government policy (b)
- an ironic short story that draws attention to how unmotivated people can be (d)

Not satire: the objective news report (c), the scientific pollution report (e), and the encyclopedia entry (f) — those are factual/informational rather than using humor, irony, or exaggeration to criticize.
