Why Rumors Outrace the Truth Online - 0 views

  •  
    This article explains how sometimes Rumors can take the advantage over the actual story. How even when the real facts are on reliable sources, false claims published by untrusted authors can sometimes take the public over. I thought it was interesting because when creating my website for segment 4, its crazy to think it could become impact the views of other researchers if published on the web.

Rhetoric Society of America - 0 views

  •  
    This doesn't specifically have to do with segment 4 but I came across it and was surprised there was a Rhetorical Society of America and that they have a conference every year that deals with rhetoric and learning more about the different kinds of rhetoric.

Writ 114 Final Project on Skateboarding Video - 0 views

  •  
    I can see some of the rhetorical elements the rhetor used in his project. He invents his ethos by telling the audience that he himself is a skateboarder and the anecdote he tells about people in Eau Claire that assumed he was vandalizing a building just because he was skateboarding. He also uses an interview from a fellow skateboarder which builds credibility too.

    This was made by a student of mine last year! Good find :)

    I find the picture on this website pretty funny and the description of Goth culture is very informative.

    I really liked how this link dug into the reasons why people become Goths and told more about their culture.
  •  
    I also liked how this website explained what a Goth really is. Interesting link!
  •  
    I really liked the descriptions of a Goth culture and the quotations by Goths.

    "The mentality is, 'I want to be left alone but I want to be seen. I want to see the shock on other peoples' faces." -- that sounds remarkably similar to the pose of "confident alienation" mentioned as part of the results from the Gross study cited by Hine.

How to Dress Like a Geek - 1 views

  •  
    Funny how to. But is probably offensive to people who choose to dress like this and how we now imitate it almost like mockery.

Putting political stance aside does anyone think that this article is very poorly written?

    Hipsters are the friends who sneer when you cop to liking Coldplay. They're the people who wear T-shirts silk-screened with quotes from movies you've never heard of and the only ones in America who still think Pabst Blue Ribbon is a good beer. They sport cowboy hats and berets and think Kanye West stole their sunglasses.

    This is absolutely a great video. I think Wil Wheatons point about how other people decided to make what you love is only for nerds is not your decision is a great point.
  •  
    this was a really good video. I feel like his explanation on why people get called names was really great
  •  
    Really liked this video! He gives the reality of the matter but also gives advise for people on how to feel better
