Ethos Pathos And Logos Used In The Movie Food Inc

211 Words1 Page

Logos is about the type of evidence the narrator or writers shares (Profesor Sells). Logos answers the kinds of evidence that the author use to support his claim. Therefore, how companies run their factories and how they are ignorant about changing their policies for the good of society, and how food gets processed and wrongs that go along with it, are the most important key claims found in the movie. The movie food inc shows statistics to help support their claim, for example, in that part when they say that there are usually 280,000 to 300,000 chickens in one single chicken house, which seems to be a lot for one chicken house, also being confirmed by the source of images and videos during the movie. Another example is when they said that

    Logos means the persuading by the use of reasoning. For example, “ No one even knows whether salmon can even survive in the lower San Joaquin, which has temperatures more suitable for bass and bluegill, (McEwen 1).” The quote is clearly a display of logos because the author demonstrates to the reader that the government does not even make sure the salmon can survive in the lower San Joaquin, which then convinces the reader the project is not well thought out and cannot be trusted. I agree with the author’s viewpoint because if the government was really interested in the benefits for people, the representatives would have looked into all the details necessary to be able to succeed with the project. Another example of the author stating logos on his article for the reader to get a better understanding of what the government really cares for is, “Besides, scientific evidence suggests that California’s salmon problems have been caused in large part by oceanic conditions and the environmental mess that is the San Joaquin-Sacramento Delta (McEwen 1).” This quote is an alternative representation of logos since it proves a fact. The fact makes the reader extra believable since he uses scientific evidence about California’s salmon problems. It is clear to me the position that is superior to the other one because there have been numerous studies proving this project will

  • Analysis Of Marty Nemko's 'We Send Too Many Students To College'

    1162 Words  | 3 Pages

    Logos appeals to reason, which are things like facts and statistics, and it works in the writers favor because it gives more information to the reader, which in turn builds the writer’s case. Nemko opens up almost right away with a “killer statistic” that warns of the fact that even if a student is giving an extended amount of time, if he or she did not graduate from high school in the top half of their class it is very unlikely that they will earn some kind of college degree. That is one statistic that is never heard, which is why it is stunning and a great way for Nemko to start off his argument. The fact that Nemko applies logos to his argument is the first reason why I agree with his proposal that too many young adults go to

    Throughout the film, various companies are exposed for promoting products in a manner that depicts the products as a healthy alternative. The ultimate exposing is done on the government and the USDA. The government is exposed for making deals with food companies to not demonize companies that sell unhealthy food. Even Michelle Obama 's "Let 's Move" campaign against childhood obesity started out bringing unhealthy companies to the light but died down by emphasizing exercise and not talking about food.This is largely in part due to a deal made with major corporations who weren’t too pleased with the original approach of “Let’s Move”. In addition, the USDA is exposed for promoting products such as cheese, milk, and high fructose corn syrup in a fictional way. They provided no information that they were unhealthy in the

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Chick-Fil-A Commercials

    1564 Words  | 4 Pages

    Logos is one of the three parts of the rhetorical triangle. In the Chick-Fil-A commercial the message that the cows are portraying is “Eat mor chikin” (cow campaign). The reason why the cow wants the audience to eat more chicken is because in their mind if people “eat more chicken, they will in turn not be eaten. (Meet the cows behind Chick-fil-A 's most successful campaign). The cows don’t necessarily show that they have emotions because they are supposed to be “fearless cows” (cow campaign) but if you connect the dots from my point about how it’s ironic to have a cow as the main character for a Chick-Fil-A commercial to the other point about the message “eat mor chikin” and to my last research point about why the cows want the audience to eat more chicken, then you would realize that they do have emotions. The literary term for emotion that appeals to the audience is called pathos. Pathos is the second part of the rhetorical

    The strongest rhetorical strategy that Egger and McDonald utilized was Logos because the men’s sales and prices were the most convincing information given to Sharks to make them want to invest in Sweet Ballz. During the early description of Sweet Ballz, Egger mentioned that their cake balls sell for a fraction of the cost of other cake balls and cake pops on their market. They explained that their Sweet Ballz sell in packs of 4, while other cake balls and pops sell individually (Tina Gonzales).

The persuasive methods used can be classified into three modes. These modes are pathos, logos, and ethos. Pathos makes an appeal to emotions, logos appeals to logic or reason and ethos makes an appeal of character or credibility. Each appeal can give support to the message that is being promoted.

They can spend their whole life running but it will not change a thing. For example, when people try to quit their faith it just comes back to haunt them, and they can not just forget the things that they learned. The author of this excerpt is trying to get away from his faith because he is an “Ex-Catholic” but it is not that simple most of the time. Just because they stop going to church does not mean that they are done with their religion. It is all around them and very hard to escape from.
