...Krystal Tebbetts Dr. Sarah Swofford Writing 1310 12 October 2015 The Rhetorical Analysis of Heather Boushey’s “Values Begin at Home, but Who’s Home?" (In the Struggle to Balance Work and Family, Work is Winning) In Heather Boushey’s article on The American Prospect 2007 is a special report titled “Values Begin at Home, but Who’s Home?” This article reflects America’s current family values. This is an older, but effective report. Heather Boushey was formerly a Senior Economist with the United States Congress Joint Economic Committee and before that, with the Center for Economic and Policy Research and the Economic Policy Institute. She has testified before the U.S. Congress and authored numerous reports and commentaries on issues affecting working families. “Heather Boushey.” Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia. Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. 13 July 2015. Web. 29 September 2015.” In this article Boushey argues that work has been winning the work/life battle- beginning with Mothers working outside of the home. Boushey also uses her skills as a former Senior Economist, to hone in on statistical data to prove the decline in family values, since Mother’s began working outside of the home. Heather Boushey article serves a dual purpose- or kairos. Boushey wrote this article stating her negative opinion toward today’s economy and how it affects family values. First, Boushey believes that mothers leaving the home to join the workforce has a negative effect on the well-being of...

...permanently discarding sweatshops while the second division highlights the complexity behind any plausible solution. While the content of this article is of elevated interest, more important for our purpose is the success behind their rhetoric. They utilize the emotions of an audience on an already sensitive topic while simultaneously providing evidence from a variety of environments and sources to point out that their conclusive recommendations are of great value when the urge to change the manner in which we get products finally sets in. In their essay “The Struggle Against Sweatshops: Moving Toward Responsible Global Business”, Radin and Calkins both inform and persuade their audience at an effective level through their credibility, emotion, and logic—ethos, pathos, and logos, respectively—to conclusively come about at more fully understanding the need for reform in global labor markets. I will first define ethos followed by an analysis and illustration of the rhetoric as it is used in the essay. That will then be followed by pathos and logos, both sharing a similar format of define, analyze, and illustrate. Rhetoric is, of course, a powerful tool and a necessary component in communication. The first of the three pillars of persuasion that make up rhetoric is ethos. Julia T. Wood (2011) defines ethos as “proof based on a speaker’s credibility” (p. 26)....

...Essay #2 In the article Child Prostitutes: Criminals or Victims? By Susan L. Pollet she talks about child prostitution in the state of New York and how they need to change their laws and the way they handle child prostitutes. Pollet talks about how there isn’t a federal law for prostitution and how the minors involved in prostitution aren’t criminals, but victims in some cases. Pollet did a great job in this article by hitting all the main points that she would need to discuss to make this article a good piece to analyze. Pollet does a great job of giving background information on this subject, since most people who probably read this article aren’t living in the state of New York. In the part of her article titled background Pollet gives statistics on prostitution in the state of New York and its largest city NYC. Pollet uses the statistic that “The New York Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) estimates that there are 2,500 youth engaged in commercialized sex in New York City.” Pollet is then able to give us some laws that are in place now that help in stopping prostitution, but are the reasons that children are continuing to work in prostitution. I like how Pollet tells you all the laws that are in place against prostitution because it gives you knowledge about the subject and gives Pollet credibility. The next part of her article Pollet talks about the Services and Protection that are there now and need to be put in place to help these youth that are being...

...Patrick Brown Mr.Challandes AP Language and Composition 24 February 2015 Malcolm X: Building Up the Fire of the Civil Rights Movement “Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it” (Malcolm X). This quote from one of Malcolm X’s speeches embodies who he was as a person and what he valued. As a civil rights activist, Malcolm learned not to let the hate of others prevent him from living out his life the way he wanted. While others pushed a pacifist movement, Malcolm understood that there would be no peaceful way to resolve the civil rights issues. Malcolm was prepared to fight for his own rights, and even put his own life at risk. The impact that he had on the Civil rights movement was rivaled only by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and all of his ideas were culminated into one speech, called The Ballot or the Bullet. Malcolm X’s speech comes during April of 1963, a critical time during the American Civil rights movement, and Malcolm’s ability to target and rile up the emotions of his African-American audience is what makes his speech so powerful. During the 1960’s, America was a hostile environment for an ambitious African-American citizen. Although executive leaders, such as John F. Kennedy, were promising that they had been doing as much as possible to improve civil rights, not enough actual progress had been made to improve the lives of African-Americans. In 1963 alone, a year in which the civil rights...

...Magazine Advertising Copy Yoshitaka Kanakubo, Nick Leung, and Madeline Yacoe Many successful advertisements capture a reader’s attention by deliberately contradicting expectations. This convention of nonconformity rewards creativity and exploration, but discourages strict regulations. The genre of promoting ideas or products changes constantly, as innovative ads continually replace yesterday’s stale traditions. This evolution is what complicates our job of defining precise strategies for writing successful ads. Popular magazines commonly feature full-page color ads. These often depict modern culture, relate to current events, and reflect the mindset of the period. Magazine ads do more than just sell products; they also promote ideas, bolster public opinion of a brand name, and are fun to look at. To break away from the mainstream, advertisers employ new ideas and constantly challenge current trends. These imaginative ads draw attention and revenue, and promote the culture of freedom and unrestrained creativity that exists in the advertising industry today. We know that the unstructured freedom of writing the text in a magazine ad (called the copy) can be overwhelming for the unaccustomed. We wrote this guide to help you understand what works and what doesn’t. It describes common techniques and explains when to use (or ignore) them. Hopefully, this discussion will prompt you to ask productive questions about your own work, and will help you create successful ads. It will also...

PREFACE Rationale We agreed to produce the instructor’s manual for the sixth edition of A First Look at Communication Theory because it’s a first-rate book and because we enjoy talking and writing about pedagogy. Yet when we recall the discussions we’ve had with colleagues about instructor’s manuals over the years, two unnerving comments stick with us: “I don’t find them much help”; and (even worse) “I never look at them.” And, if the truth be told, we were often the people making such points! With these statements in mind, we have done some serious soul-searching about the texts that so many teachers—ourselves...
