I Am Man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGLHlvb8skQ - 6 views

This commercial was pretty funny! It also has situational ethos because burger king is a well known fast food company (It's no McDonalds though). It also uses plenty of examples of how tough these ...

These 75 Iconic Photos Will Define The 21st Century So Far. Everyone Needs To See This. - 5 views

  •  
    These pictures are very moving and the author intended it to be that way. The pictures appeal to the audiences patriotic side at times and also appeal to sadness or great respect. I know it is long but these pictures are truly worth taking your time to look at.

    These pictures are so cool and powerful! I think so many of them appeal to pathos and the emotions of the audience due to both the sadness and the triumphant feelings that the pictures give off. Great visual rhetoric example! Totally worth looking through.
  •  
    Absolutely incredible. They give you a feeling that there is still faith in humanity. Great example of visual rhetoric!
  •  
    These pictures are really cool! Definitely worth looking at! Many different emotions throughout all of the pictures.

I can't think of a better way to make the pathos in this commercial more effective. I also liked how the commercial had dimmed tones during the first part then when it opens onto the graffiti it be...

    Yeah, maybe this will help me keep my side of the room as clean as my roommate's.
  •  
    Nice tips! Might have to send this to my mom so she can try mixing up some of these cleaning concoctions at home!
  •  
    What the heck! Dust with dryer sheets? I think my approach to cleaning is going to be different, now. Thanks for the tips and the insight into those whose lives are much much cleaner than mine!! :)

    I'm sharing #3 (the car fresheners stuck into a fan) with a friend that lives in my dorm. She said since day one her room has always smelt musty, so maybe this will do the trick. These were really interesting to read through :)

I agree! The video uses situated ethos and uses pathos towards showing equal opportunity towards women. It focuses not only on women having "great hair" and feeling good about themselves, but also ...

UW Oshkosh - Best Day of My Life - 12 views

It's interesting to compare the two videos, UWEC and UWO. Very different approaches but they both get their point across and try to persuade you to come.

Quitting Smoking commercial - 1 views

shared by mittelbm on 13 Oct 14 - No Cached
  •  
    I've seen this commercial a few times and each time it grosses me out. This commercial has an audience of people that smoke, who should quit, but more importantly an audience of people to advise them not to start smoking in the first place.It uses micrologos by showing an example that if you smoke, it could result in you loosing your teeth (among other harmful effects).
  •  
    I've never seen this commercial, it appeals to pathos because it is intended to scare people to not start smoking.

Protesters march, call for an end to 'police brutality' in Jersey City - 1 views

  •  
    Calls for an end to police brutality echoed down Martin Luther King Jr. Drive in Jersey City Saturday afternoon. "Stop police brutality!" and "No justice! No peace!" were some of the chants repeated by about two dozen protesters, both young and old, as they marched more than a mile from McAdoo Avenue to Martin Luther King Plaza around 1 p.m. This is definitely in response to the police brutality, which helps identify it as a rhetoric piece.

Why Quit Smoking - American Lung Association - 0 views

shared by mittelbm on 29 Sep 14 - No Cached
  •  
    I believe that this is rhetorical writing. With smokers being the primary audience, it seeks to persuade them to quit by informing them of all the reasons why they should stop. This article also states facts, builds community for smokers aiming to quit, etc.

Rhetoric in an Ad - 1 views

  •  
    This image is rhetorical because it is obviously planned and adapted to an audience. It reveals human motives to be more environmentally aware of the actions taken with usage of water. It addresses the contingent issue of how citizens treat the environment and how we are wasteful with certain resources. This ad appeals to pathos because it directly shows how it affects fish and other creatures who live in the water we mistreat. Also, it is kairotic because this ad came out around the same time as the BP oil spill. It can be used to support the fact that, many times, we don't treat water respectfully and not only does it affect our lives, it affects the animals' lives as well.

Religious Groups React to Gay Marriage Rulings - 1 views

  •  
    Legalizing or not legalizing gay marriage has been a contingent issue for a long time. This is also showing one of the six characteristics that rhetoric is responsive, this article is about some of the responses that people had on the ruling of gay marriage.
  •  
    This is a kairotic article because many states are deciding whether to legalize gay marriage or not. Also, the exigence is obviously the fact that some states are beginning to legalize the marriages.

Airlines and Their Baggage Fees - 1 views

  •  
    This article is about airlines telling travelers to get used to fees because they are now a way of life and aren't going anywhere
  •  
    Not that I like paying the extra 50 bucks but I know that they have a point and I too am getting used to forking up the extra cash if I travel.

Junk food in schools - 1 views

shared by tollakdd on 07 Oct 14 - No Cached
  •  
    I found this interview when searching for rhetoric speeches. Michelle has situated ethos because she has political power as well as the fact that she has been in many commercials similar to this topic before. In addition, Mrs. Obama uses pathos with appealing to the fact that many children go hungry or eat unhealthy and we can do something to help them. Overall, I thought Michelle Obama was very persuasive in this interview and really turned heads to what is going on with the youth of America.
  •  
    She also uses logos in this interview by saying "9 million kids and more than 22,000 schools" which in turn also helps with pathos since those are very big numbers.
