Abstract

Humor i satira međusobno su povezani te se njihova uloga promatra u političkom i društvenom kontekstu u kojem se nalaze. Suvremeno doba donijelo je nove društvene i političke okolnosti koje satira opisuje, ali i novi medijski okoliš koji ju okružuje. Iz tog razloga opisane su glavne karakteristike satire ironija i parodija u odnosu s publikom te definirani ključni pojmovi: politička satira, satirične vijesti i lažne vijesti. Rad je dao povijesni pregled satiričnih listova u Hrvatskoj, a u fokus istraživanja stavio satirični online medij Newsbar kao danas jedini aktivni medij te vrste. Metode korištene u istraživanju su kvantitativna analiza sadržaja provedena na člancima portala Newsbar, objavljenim u promatranom razdoblju od jedne godine te kvalitativni intervjui provedeni s aktivnim satiričarima i medijskim stručnjacima. Istraživanje je pokazalo da je satira Newsbara politička, ali reagira i na društvene teme te se ostvaruje putem satiričnih vijesti. U Hrvatskoj pri proizvodnji satire postoji autocenzura i vanjski pritisci koji u odnosu na prošlost više nisu politički i direktni već dolaze od strane oglašivača. Bez obzira na oblik u kojem dolazi satira je nužan dio demokratskog društva.

Abstract (english)

Humor and satire are interrelated and their role is viewed in the political and social context in which they find themselves. The modern age has brought new social and political circumstances that satire describes, but also a new media environment that surrounds it. For this reason, the main elements of the satire, irony, and parody, are explained in their relation to the audience while also the key concepts are defined: political satire, satirical news, and fake news. The paper provides a historical overview of satirical papers in Croatia. The focus of the research is the satirical online media Newsbar, as the only active media of its kind today. The methods used in research are quantitative content analysis conducted on the articles of the Newsbar portal, published in the observed period of one year, and qualitative interviews conducted with active satire authors and media experts. Research has shown that the satire of Newsbar is political, but also deals with social topics and is achieved through the form of satirical news. In Croatia, there are self-censorship and external pressures in the production of satire, which in relation to the past are no longer political and direct, but coming from the side of advertisers.
Satire is in any form an important part of a democratic society.
