...article by The Editorial Board from The New York Times, “The Pointless Banishment of Sex Offenders”, the author goes into detail showing that it really is not necessary to banish all sex offenders. The Board goes further to talk about how residency Laws “drive tens of thousands of people to the fringes of society, forcing them to live in motels, out of cars or under bridges” (par 3). There is a huge variety of offenses that could classify someone as a sex offender, so the court system, and society should not group them into one large statistic. The author is very effective using multiple techniques including ethos, logos, and pathos to prove that not every one of these offenders should be banished from society. Ethos is the appeal to ethics, and it uses credible recourses to get to the point. In this editorial in particular, it is used to show that people we look up to are cracking down on sex offenders, and the idea is not, in fact, just an idea. “Lately, judges have been pushing back. So far in 2015, state supreme courts in California, Massachusetts and New York have struck down on residency laws” (par 4). The author uses judges as a reliable source to make the reader understand just how seriously these things are taken, so that they can see that it is unnecessary. Another technique the author uses that is very beneficial to the readers understanding of the concept is logos. This is a literary technique that appeals to logic; it is helpful in this editorial, using facts and...

...all positive? Can there be some negative factors? Based on politics, health, and peoples point of view it is a widely recognized, highly controversial, and common issue in the United States. Many politicians believe it should be legalized and others disagree, especially during the presidential primary. In David Sheff’s article “Marijuana Should Be Legal, but …” in time magazine he proposes that marijuana should be legalized even though it can be harmful to adolescences. Through Sheff’s article, appeals of logos, pathos, and ethos, and knowledge about the subject has an impact on the article as a whole. They help develop his argument that weed is great thing, and it should be legalized. Sheff believes the benefits of adding marijuana to the United States' economy outweighs the dangers it can cause, but that they should be recognized also. Especially those dangers that involve minors. Sheff affectively and ineffectively persuades his audience by using ethos, pathos, and logos. Sheff does this by using some persuasions over zealously and some not enough. Sheff's article develops the ideas of how marijuana has negative impact on adolescence, but a positive impact on society as a whole. This article published on August 4, 2014 strives to inform everyday people on the effects of marijuana and persuade them to understand how marijuana usage and proper regulation are a positive attribute in the everyday outlook of users. The other point they make is Children, teens and young adults...

...The newspaper article I came up with is an editorial from The Washington Post titled “The NSA must disclose more to make it case”. This article touches on a sensitive topic which has spark out a debate across the country. The article says “the bulk collection of phone ‘metadata’ and call records is a potentially powerful tool that could reveal sensitive facts about nearly every American’s life if abused, and according to the article this practice was disclosed by the NSA’s former contractor Edward Snowden who demands extensive checks to guard against misuse (Washington Post, 2013). According to the article, a taskforce was formed and was to submit a report to President Obama, in their report they would like to see a higher legal standard applied in accessing phone records by government. The report proposed an end to the bulk collection of records, calling on the NSA to approach phone companies and ask for records as when investigators need them on a case-by-case basis. Government officials seemed to open in considering this arrangement but voiced concern that investigative speed may be lost in the interest of privacy protection (Washington Post, 2013) The article argued that for the NSA to make a strong case, it must demonstrate the national security benefit to the program. It further did mentioned of the U.S. District Judge Richard J. Leon who issued an injunction to prevent the bulk collection of the data. His actions gives the government a chance to appeal and he ruled that...

...Britannica’s editorial board of advisors, Nicholas Carr, claims our intelligence is being weakened by internet usage. Carr cites his concentration shift, as well as those of colleagues, as argument for this growing trend. He observes that while there haven’t been definitive neurological studies, there have been research studies which support his theory. The introduction of internet usage has led to weaker reading habits, thus a decrease in deep thinking. In his essay Carr refers to industry experts, “[T]he media or other technologies we use in learning and practicing the craft of reading play an important part in shaping the neural circuits inside our brains”. Reading books uses different circuitry in the brain than that of the internet. Without the effort required for deep thinking, our brains do not develop the way they once did. Our intelligence is affected. As Carr points out, the human brain can be changed even in adulthood. Accordingly, the introduction of the Net and its fast paced information is affecting how people learn and progress. Finally, Carr suggests that an entire cultural inheritance might be lost at the expense of intellectual immediacy. Without the ability to think deeply, humanity is left with little else. Thesis Nicholas Carr skillfully weaves three elements of pathos, ethos and logos in his essay, “Is Google Making us Stupid?” in order to lend credence to his assertion that the rise of the internet has caused the dumbing down of a culture. Logos In the...

...valuable resource but also a hindrance in more than one way. In his article “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” Nicholas Carr (2012), Dartmouth College and Harvard University graduate and member of Encyclopedia Britannica’s editorial board of advisors, addresses some of the various disadvantages technology imposes upon the lives of people nowadays. People’s ability to sit down and enjoy a “lengthy article” (p. 89) has been diminishing as more technology is being used in the place of books. The need for faster access to information or immediate answers has never been as predominant as it is now. The Google search engine’s main focus is to gather information from all over the internet and organize it in such a way that is useful to the user. This type of data retrieval or learning can and will change the way people think. The way the brain works is moldable and changes quite constantly depending on the data it is exposed to. In a technology-propelled culture, “the human brain is just an outdated computer that needs a faster processor and a bigger hard drive” (p. 94). The internet thrives on the type of skimming that most people succumb to in today’s world, but Carr attests that “[t]he kind of deep reading that a sequence of printed pages promotes is [more] valuable” (p. 95). Logos Using his title, “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” Carr gives the reader the literary liberty to come up with their own opinions to the question being asked in the title. This article isn’t one that would be found in...
