“Is it any wonder that the slogan the advertising people came up with was “The Sooner You Believe It, the Sooner We Can End It”?”. Anna Quindlen has chosen to write about child hunger in America. She persuades her readers effectively because of her use of logos, pathos, and ethos.
Many in the U.S., today, try to eat well,balanced, meals to order to maintain a healthy lifestyle. They do so by purchasing their food at farmers markets or making their own meals, so their food isn’t processed or genetically modified. Even though people are trying to maintain health in order to live long lives, without medical complications, many don’t have the opportunity to pursue life like this. In “Research shows food deserts more abundant in minority neighborhoods,” the author, Kelly Brooks, portrays an anecdote and logical reasoning, from Kelly Bower’s research, to thoroughly describe the food deserts in poor minority neighborhoods and how this issue needs to be repaired.
During this chapter of The Omnivore’s Dilemma Pollan talks about fast food. This means that he is speaking to people who regularly eat fast food and those who are wondering what is in their food when they order out. As a part of this he asks biologist Todd Dawson to run fast food items through a spectrometer to see how much corn is in the food. His analyses concluded that “soda (100 percent corn), milk shake (78 percent), salad dressing (65 percent), chicken nuggets (56 percent), cheeseburger (52 percent), and French fries (23 percent)” (p. 117). This is part of Pollan educating his audience of what is in their food when they go through the drive through. Speaking of his audience, his main demographic is to the people that are truly wonder
This 1980s movie called "Wall Street" is about a young and impatient stockbroker who is willing to do anything to get to the top, including trading on illegal inside information taken through a ruthless and greedy corporate raider. A corporate raider is a person who buys up underperforming companies, breaks them up and sells their parts at a healthy profit. Gordon Gekko is a corporate raider and also the single largest shareholder in Teldar Paper made a speech about how the members of the management board steal money from the company during an annual stockholders meeting. Gekko gives a speech at a shareholders’ meeting of Teldar Paper, a company he is planning to take over. This is the famous “greed is good” speech as Gekko defends his planned takeover, pointing to the wasteful ways of post-War corporate America, using Teldar’s management as Exhibit A, and claiming himself the company’s saviour a “liberator” of value.
Children are waiting endlessly to leave paternal cares and use their man-given freedom. After leaving the nest, we often come to find diverging roads that don’t have clear answers. It’s all about making the “adult choice.” Whatever that is. David Zinczenko, a health aficionado, argues that the fast-food industry is to blame for America’s obesity epidemic. Although with obsolete information, through the modes of persuasion: pathos, logos, and ethos, he persuades his audience to his assertions. On the other hand, Radley Balko, libertarian, believes that individuals should be held accountable for their own actions, whether or not they eat a cheeseburger from McDonald’s. Through the use of pathos and logos, he portrays his views to his libertarian audience. The rhetoric between Zinczenko and Balko were significantly different, which leads to the effectiveness also differing. In my opinion, Zinczenko better effectively communicated his claim to his audience, and thus, making his argument better than Balko’s.
After reading your article “Don’t Blame the Eater,” I must say that I completely agree with your stance on how the fast food business is making Americans obese but also how it is our personal responsibility to try and stay away from it. You did a great job of making your stance on how people need to prioritize and eat healthy although the process is difficult known throughout the entire essay. I also enjoyed your personal story about your relationship with fast food making your essay relatable, the lack of knowledge we have on fast food as a nation, the health risks that can occur, and how all companies care about is the money they take from us. Within this letter, I am writing to you an analysis of the rhetorical appeals you used to back up your thoughts, your tone of voice, the way you brought the reader in with your witty choice of words and how extraordinarily you were able to persuade me as a reader.

The first element of the rhetorical structure and possibly the strongest in this documentary is pathos. Pathos refers to the emotion exhibited throughout the documentary. Food, Inc. is filled with an array of colors, sounds, stories, and images that all appeal to emotion. Miserable images of cows being slaughtered with dark music in the background, pictures of industrial factories with no sun and unhappy workers, and even a depressing and eye-opening home video of a young boy who was killed by the disease as a result of bad food were all portrayed throughout Food, Inc. Barbara Kowalcyk, mother of the late Kevin, is an advocate for establishing food standards with companies throughout the nation. When asked about her sons death, she replied, “To watch this beautiful child go from being perfectly healthy to dead in 12 days-- it was just unbelievable that this could happen from eating food.” (Food, Inc.) Obviously very devastated and still heartbroken over her loss, Kowalcyk fought

As our unnamed heroine slumps through afternoon traffic, exhausted and crestfallen from another arduous day of swilling diet coke by the pallid light of a word processor, she turns on the car radio to find a pertinent message being broadcasted.
Manipulation of language can be a weapon of mind control and abuse of power. The story Animal Farm by George Orwell is all about manipulation, and the major way manipulation is used in this novel is by the use of words. The character in this book named Squealer employs ethos, pathos, and logos in order to manipulate the other animals and maintain control.
“The pen is mightier than the sword.” This is a popular saying that explains that, sometimes, in order to persuade or convince people, one should not use force but words. In Animal Farm, by George Orwell, animals overthrow the human leader and start a new life, but some animals want to become the new leaders. To make the other animals obey the pigs, they first have to persuade the farm’s population. Squealer is the best pig for this job because he effectively convinces the animals to follow Napoleon by using different rhetorical devices and methods of persuasion.
