Whereas other newspapers and magazines pay cartoonists according to their rank in the profession, Satire and Humor compensates them by the quality of their work; thus, amateur cartoonists have been known to receive space on page one. Xu (interview, 2001) said that cartoonists are asked to draw on specific topics—timely themes, government policy, and, especially the common people’s concerns. Every sixteen-page issue includes a page of comic strips, very popular with readers. Despite being an appendage of the government newspaper, Satire and Humor has “no limitations, as we can control everything ourselves,” Xu (interview, 2001) said.
Xu (interview, 2001) proudly stated that Satire and Humor cultivated a new generation(s) of cartoonists, who “get more and more famous publishing in Satire and Humor, for which they are grateful.” He also pointed out Satire and Humor has the longest run in the history of Chinese cartoon/humor magazines.
