Bowling For Columbine Questions?
Satire: literary technique that combines a critical attitude with humor, often with the intent of correcting or changing the subject of the satire





Example: Moore played Louis Armstrong's What a Wonderful World while showing footage of the World Trade Center on September 11. Obviously this is not a wonderful world, and the footage shows it, yet he plays it anyway.





Example 2: Moore goes to a bank where he gets a free gun for opening an account.





Example 3:


Moore takes two Columbine victims to the American superstore Kmart headquarters in Troy, Michigan, ostensibly to claim a refund on the bullets still lodged in their bodies. After a number of attempts to evade the issue, a Kmart spokesperson says that the firm will change its policy and phase out the sale of handgun ammunition; this comes after Moore and the victims go to the nearest Kmart store, purchase all of their ammunition, and return the next day with several members of the media. "We've won," says Moore, in disbelief. "That was more than we asked for."
