A cigarette has been an essential stress-relieving tool to many people even with the health risks and environmental damages cigarette are causing. However, in the past three years electronic cigarette has been taking over on cigarette and its production.

Electronic cigarette has been taking over in the past couple of …show more content…
The image illustrates how electronic cigarette does not have the downsides of tobacco cigarette such as toxic chemicals, yellow teeth, and smelly clothes, which relates to the rhetoric and visual appeal Pathos, the emotional appeal (Carabelli, et al, 87). Every smoker is harmed from the yellow teeth and the smell of cigarette, but has to deal with it, which obviously makes the person’s emotion have a sense of guilt because of doing something that is harming one’s health. The second image is assisting the first image’s idea of gaining supporters and costumers, but this advertisement, however, is focused more on advertising BluCigs products than to aware the public about the issue. In the image on the bottom right there is the complete kit for electronic cigarette in an organized way to grab the costumer’s attention, it also shows the many options of products BluCigs has to offer “They offer seven flavors to choose from and four nicotine levels” (Healy 1) One would be able to choose the taste wanted from a variety of different syrups available (Healy 1). The text in this image “Tastes and smokes better than a real cigarette!” gives it a form of authority because of the comparison stated that an electronic cigarette is better than real cigarette which makes an appeal to the rhetoric visual ethos, that appeals to
Electronic cigarettes are more accessible to kids aged 18 and under. Today in the U.S there is a debate about cigarettes being outlawed. Although people in the U.S believe that e cigs should be outlawed because they are easier to access for kids under the age 18 they are causing kids to get hurt by e cigs; however some people might say E-cigs are enjoyable and are better than regular cigarettes.
The campaign Truth focuses on giving facts, truths and statistics to its viewers to become educated on the topic of tobacco. Underneath the large text from above, the second fact states that “90% of them started as teen smokers.” Many adults that have become addicted to smoking cigarettes began the habit as teens. There are many people that believe smokers are not good people and that they are going to be ill. That is what the artist of this picture is portraying. Truth’s most recent campaign, ‘Finish It’, has a strong theme: “be the generation that ends smoking for good.” This has been presented and shown through social media and popular television shows. Through the exposure of the deathly, and eye opening facts through social media, it has been a great impact to teenagers. On Truth’s website they state that “We’re not here to criticize your choices, or tell you not to smoke. We’re here to arm everyone—smokers and nonsmokers—the the tools to make it change” (thetruth.com). Many other anti—smoking campaigns shame and make smokers feel guilty but Truth is mainly about exposing the facts and making people more knowledgeable about tobacco.

Smoking is one of the leading causes of premature death world-wide. Anti-smoking advertisements, such as yours, are meant to inform people of the dangers of tobacco as well as discourage others from developing the bad habit. In order to successfully persuade your audience, the advertisement cleverly utilizes the three rhetorical appeals of ethos, logos, and pathos through its image and implied meanings.
Over the last 50 years, smoking and the public image of smoking has changed dramatically. Americans have learned the harmful effects of smoking and have put a heavy disdain on the use of it. The number of new smokers has drastically dropped over the years and many that had previously smoked have stopped. Some have turned to electronic cigarettes as a safer way to intake nicotine.

Smoking cigarettes is a detrimental practice not only to the smoker, but also to everyone around the smoker. According to an article from the American Lung Association, “Health Effects” (n.d.), “Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., causing over 438,000 deaths per year”. The umbrella term for tobacco use includes the use of cigarettes, cigars, e-cigs and chewing tobacco. While tobacco causes adverse health consequences, it also has been a unifying factor for change in public health. While the tobacco industries targets specific populations, public health specifically targets smokers, possible smokers, and the public to influence cessation, policies and education.

Now, cigarette ads include labels with warning signs, disturbing pictures of deceased unborn children, children with smoke formed into bags over their heads, people with amputated limbs, or pictures of gum and tooth decay. “Even if, as some enthusiasts claim, e-cigarettes can help a smoker quit, could it also entice young people to start?” (Are e-Cigarettes Safe?). Figure 3 contains an ad of a man smoking on a blu e-cig with the phrase ,“Why Quit? Switch To Blu”. This one ad out of many, surprisingly, contains a now required warning label at the bottom, warning pregnant or potentially pregnant consumers of the chance that their baby or reproductive system may be harmed. What some consumers don 't know, is that the e-cigarette owners are also the owners of the big tobacco cigarette companies. These companies clearly don 't want the smokers to quit smoking, but continue with what is argued as a “healthier”
From my late teens, into my mid-twenties, I was a smoker. At first, it was just recreational; however that changed fairly quickly. I began buying them and smoking regularly throughout the day. It then progressed to smoking a pack per day until it was too late. I was officially addicted. I knew it was a terrible habit and I was shamed of it and would hide it from friends and family hoping they wouldn’t find out. Finally, after coughing hacking, and repeatedly getting sick several times a year, I came to the realization that I had to quit. However, it wasn’t as easy as I had anticipated. After relapsing several times before I was finally able to quit, I broke this terrible habit successfully. It was an extremely difficult habit to break and I’ll never go back. I was a lucky individual who had the mental toughness and willpower to overcome this strong addiction, but Americans struggle to quit each year, and many never do. However, there’s a new product on the market today called electronic cigarettes that are believed to aid individuals in the fight against addiction. It’s a battery powered device that heats a nicotine diluted solution into a vapor that is then inhaled. It’s believed to be a healthier, more affordable alternative to tobacco cigarettes. It is much safer because it doesn’t have nearly as many harmful chemicals as tobacco cigarettes and it’s believed to be much more affordable for consumers. However, many critics believe that electronic cigarettes are extremely addictive and just as harmful. Although electronic cigarettes are believed to be detrimental to people’s heath due to low quality product standards, harmful components in filling solution, and reports suggesting they’re addictive and just as harmful as toba...
Rhetoric is easily seen when comparing and contrasting these two forms of advertisement, as was proven. Between the Doritos commercial and the smoking billboard, examples of pathos, logos, and ethos were not hard to find. Both advertisements, though, were different in their ways of expressing rhetoric. Therefore, analyzing them individually was not the challenge, but choosing which manipulated rhetoric the best was hard. In general, it is important to recognize and interpret the pathos, logos, and ethos in all things and
