In his review in The New Yorker, David Denby sees Mr. Zuckerberg as “a symbolic man of the age, a supremely functional prince of dysfunction” who “leaves behind his friends as well as his intellectual inferiors,” which Mr. Denby calls “Zuckerberg’s tragedy.”

Visual Rhetoric

This picture by the Brazilian cartoonist Carlos Latuff was published in many different newspapers around the world last year. The cartoon wants to show how Israel’s blockade of Gaza is a violation against the UN’s human rights and how the rest of the world can’t do anything about it as Israel is protected by the US. The intended audience is anyone how sees the cartoon.

Barack Obama is draw bigger than the world to show the large influence the US has on the global politics and the UN.  The World is drawn small and angry like a child that is upset with its parents but deep down know that whatever they say will not change the decision of the US. The blood leaking out from Gaza and the spiked shoes on Israel symbols the inhuman treatment and the suffering of Palestinian people.
