Rhetorical Analysis Of Budweiser

419 Words1 Page

In lecture 7 part 2 we were introduced to Aristotle and his 3-part system that included ethos, pathos and logos. From the ads given in lecture I think that the first one about Budweiser has all three of these elements. For example ethos means credibility and this ad has credibility because almost everyone in America knows what the Budweiser company makes and sells. However, many people don't know how they began so by showing this ad of how Adolphus Busch came to meet Anhesuer helps the audience understand where it all started and makes us trust this company a little more. And we know this is a Budweiser ad because at the end it shows the Anhesuer-Busch name and then the Budweiser name. This ad also has pathos or emotional appeal.
