'''''Mad''''' is a humor magazine for older children and teenagers. Since the 1950s it has provided horror and satire, often shrewdly skewering the hypocrisy and foolishness of adults. Mad has brought awareness of [[consumer hype]], [[alcoholism]] and [[drug abuse]], as well as the futility of age-old [[feud]]s such as the [[Arab-Israeli conflict]]. The mascot of the magazin is ''Alfred E. Newman'', a grin boy with a missing tooth and protruded ears. Mad was opposed to the [[Operation Iraqi Freedom]] and [[George W. Bush]]s politics.
