How does the author use satire in this excerpt?
<span>The author is criticizing media censorship.
Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize peoples' unsavory conduct particularly when it relates to topical and political issues.

It is defining.
Defining relative clause does not have a comma, while a non-defining relative clause has.
For example, if the sentence is:
The children, who hate chocolates, are uncommon.
- since there is comma in this sentence, it is non-defining.
- while if there is no comma like the question in the picture, it is defining.
