Some examples of logos that remained shown in the article remained Diana’s death and also when Queen Elizabeth stated, “Since last Sunday’s dreadful news we have seen, throughout Britain and around the world, and overwhelming expression of sadness at Diana’s death.” By reading the article, it remained very clear that Princess Diana got involved with multiple charities.

Another example of pathos shown remains when Queen Elizabeth stated: “In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness,” while she spoke of Princess Diana.

Some examples of logos shown in this article remained that Diana had eating disorders, and that the last time that Earl had seen Diana was for her birthday on July 1st in London. To explain the pathos, Earl Spencer tells about the sadness of Diana’s death and says how wonderful of a person she acted as, “People who never actually met her, feel that they too, lost someone close to them.” Anyone who has ever read this eulogy could feel the great amount of emotion that the brother had expressed for Diana. This article missed the mark because the author gets off of subject and talks more about the feelings of him and the people rather than about

An example of Moss’s outstanding usage of ethos, pathos, and logos is Jeffrey Dunn’s story. Dunn held an executive position at Coca-Cola in 2001, when the main company goal was to drive Coca-Cola into poorer areas. On a business trip to Brazil, Dunn realized that “these people need a lot of things, but they don’t need a Coke” and decided to push the company in a healthier direction. This choice led to Dunn’s eventual firing (491-494).

Her word choice is strong throughout her talk, giving a question to the audience in the beginning of her talk asking, “How many of you know/knew someone has/had a mental illness when growing up.” This appeal to emotion grabs the audience’s attention as Harris attempts to relate her talk to everyone there. Harris’s logos are directly related to her pathos as her logos backs up her pathos. Without logos, Harris’s pathos would have been nothing as no supportive information would be

Ethos, convincing people, is used through doctors, physiologists, and lawyers in the article. As you read the article some of the doctors seem to lose their standing with us because they could not detect what Dee Dee was doing to Gyspy, but ethos is used. Pathos deals with emotion and you get a lot of different emotions throughout the article. There is anger for what Dee Dee did to Gyspy, sadness for Dee Dee’s death, love which is what Rob, Gyspy’s father, has ever done to her, but there certainly more. Logos is logic, in the article, there is a use of it. Like when the article discusses the condition that Dee Dee had called, Malingering.

Aristotle’s rhetorical triangle links three elements of arguing together: the speaker, the story, and the audience. The relationship between the elements determines the speaker’s argument and whether it will be successful in oratory or literature. Ethos, Logos and Pathos are each different aspects of the argument that must be balanced in order to succeed in persuading or convincing an audience. Ethos, or character, relates to the speaker’s credibility that the audience appeals to: it is useful when persuading a group of people to trust what you are saying or doing. Logos, or logic, is a way of convincing and appealing by reason, truth, and facts. Pathos relates to the audience’s emotions and their response to what the speaker is saying.
This causes her strongest statement to lose logos and ethos. Rust-Tierney and Schneck also bring heavy doses of pathos and logos as they question the same question William Baude poses: “Yet what if someone goes through every possible procedure and after all is said and done still claims to be innocent? What if another court were to actually find him innocent?” (Baude, 20).

She uses euphemism to make something harsh or distasteful sound in a somewhat positive way. She uses ethos to convince her audience of her credibility. There are very few weaknesses in her article which are greatly outweighed by the many strengths in
