I'm a huge fan of Satire. Wish I was doing that assignment. :P
My personal favourites are:
www.framleyexaminer.com/ - I have the books they released, there's some scans on the site. The supreme ruler of British satire.
www.mustardweb.org - Another satire mag I stubled across when reading a BBC article. They also have all of their articles available online.
www.private-eye.co.uk - Not sure if this has much of the good stuff online, but the magazine is great. Long running British satire mag.

Good luck with the essay. ;)

Mad Magazine is another one. That's all satire and stuff.

At least it used to be.

Yes it's very clever and simple satire so teenagers can read it for face value

Neo, before you put pen to paper, try to remember never to use the phrase "satire aticles" ever again.

You should be citing "satirical articles". This may sound pedantic but your teacher will be calling you a monkey about 10 seconds into your paper if you don't.

don't forget google scholar - I am a post grad student and find it invaluable for essays et al.
