Summary/Abstract: Media satire remains at the center of a public debate on the limits of freedom of expression. The present contribution proposes to analyze satirical articles from the newspaper El Manchar published between 2015 and 2020. It is interested, in a discourse analysis approach, in politically committed humor and in the possibility of amalgamation, in satire, between the humorous contract (with distancing) and the political-militant contract (without distancing). This study applies, consequently, to analyze the traces of the enunciative implication of the primary speaker-lecturers. It is particularly interested in the use of public insults and hyperbolic exaggeration. The analysis of the corpus of study reveals that this political satire offers a cathartic effect to release the anger and express the indignation of the satirists. It seems to become an instrument in the service of an ideology against the power in place and its close affiliates.
