Russian Probe


Russia Probe [Fox News- White House ] LOGOS ; Sarah Sanders didn't have any evidence in the claims she was making. Bill even asked if someone informed her that the situation was coming to an end and she basically said "she" or "they" just believed it was. She was saying it was based on facts but not giving any. PATHOS ; She was also trying to connect with the audience emotions by saying all the president wants is to take care of his people, specifically middle class. ETHOS ; She was trying to persuade people in believing and repeating that the democrats were at fault.


Russia Probe [Fox News- Tomi Lahrens ] PATHOS ; She is using "we" and "I speak for Americans" to try to connect to emotions. ETHOS ; She sais nothing about Trump but goes on and on about Hillarys mistakes but "we may never know" about Trumps. LOGOS ; All she is saying is based on opinion. Doesn't give any evidence.


Russia Probe [CNN - New York Times] LOGOS ; In the video Mark informed us that Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to lying to FBI. Mark also informed that Papadopoulos also implied Russia said they had dirt on Hillary. So not only did he plead guilty, but the piece revealed was key to investigation. ETHOS ; Mostly facts displayed throughout the video, Mark speaking the way he did with facts and the confidence of what he is saying is true helps us realize the dominant "assumptions" he is making. PATHOS ; You also have someone who admitted to the crime, so they kept making sure that we knew he admitted to the crime. 


Russia Probe [ MSNBC - Morning Joe ] PATHOS ; Matt is saying "It is pretty clear if you were paying attention." To connect to the audience emotions from the bat. They are also explaining that connecting pieces together and all the pieces they've connected make perfect sense now just by knowing that right after Papadopoulos spilled that secret the emails came out. LOGOS ; Trump blamed the investigation on something else, but they read the emails to and from Papadopoulos w/ the Russians. The time chain connects more w/ what New York times is saying then what Trump is. ETHOS ; They have that timeline set up to convince people that they are right and all Trump had is a Tweet and they made sure we knew that. Also the lady with the blonde hair at the end (don't know her name) makes sure she adds "Make sure you don't hire any drunk loose lips" just adding salt to the pepper.

Response to Gerard Jones "Violent Media Is Good For Kids"

Gerard Jones may believe Violent Media is good for kids but his attempt to convince us are just opinions from his viewpoint. He starts of with personal emotions and opinions. The upside to this is that sometimes people may sympathize and connect to his emotions with him. "I suffocated my deepest fears and desires into a young boy persona." He is trying to connect with the reader by letting them know that he couldn't be himself, he had to hide under someone he wasn't and by saying this he is interpreting that he is not the only child out there that isn't aloud to express themselves in a matter in which they want to. "I withdrew into passivity and loneliness." Here he is trying to earn the readers sympathy by letting them know that without being able to express himself he withdrew from others and that can happen to other kids too. Then he uses his mothers student opinion as reference stating they believe comics are actually positive. "One of my mot...

"Playing For A Change" - Stand By Me

  The title tells a lot about what the song is intended to do. He is literally playing for a change in humanity. The video uses elements of Rhetoric to create an argument in a visual way. In order to make the video he needed the equipment to do so. In order to make the video he also needed to find talented musicians, who knew how to play different instruments and sing. He traveled to video people from different countries. They are all connecting to one another through music or this particular song. Everyone who was featured was outside. To emphasize that we are all part of this world, all humans and equal. Everyone was outside to dwell on humbleness. The words that most appealed to me were "Always need somebody to stand by you," and by that he meant someone you know, maybe someone you don't know, or maybe even someone from another country but everyone needs somebody. The images that most impacted me were when he started showing the people and naming the countries from ar...
