...The New Yorker, Donald Trump was expected to be the all-out brawler, bulldozing over Hillary Clinton with boastfulness, rudeness and many interruptions. As I have written before, I do not believe he fully lived up to this in the first debate, but that changed come the second debate. The second presidential debate comes on the heels of a jaw dropping example of Trump’s vulgar and objectifying language. Instead of being humble, admitting he was wrong, and demonstrating what had changed him, Mr. Trump immediately pivoted to attacking Secretary Clinton on everything from Benghazi to her e-mails, while the same time levying attacks against the supposed sexual indiscretions of former President Bill Clinton. He repeatedly pointed to Secretary Clinton and used pointed language such as ‘you’, which came across as rude....

...In a world where anyone can say anything, it is important to be able to identify the reasons behind the speaker’s purpose and what the individual is actually implying. The person I will be doing rhetorical analysis on is Donald Trump. Trump is sixty-nine years of age and he is currently a Chairman as well as president of The Trump Organization. I think Trump will be rhetorically interesting because I have done rhetorical analysis on him about his Facebook page previously. He was good at using rhetorical appeals to his audience at the right spots. To start off, for Trump, obviously his overall goal is to get votes. At the main republican presidential debate (excerpt on page 3), he present himself as someone respectful of his opponents by using...

...Comparative Rhetorical Analysis: Donald Trump and Jeb Bush “I’m officially announcing my candidacy for President of the United States of America.” Members of the Republican Party have heard this seventeen times so far during the duration of this presidential primary cycle. It’s safe to say that anyone who gives any attention to presidential elections in America have been enlightened with a very interesting presidential primary so far to say the least. It’s important to analyze what statements the candidates are trying to present to the potential voters in their party's primary election. Businessman, Donald Trump and former Florida Governor Jeb Bush campaign announcement speeches are considered to be in the top tier of effectiveness. While they both have very different views on how to govern our country and Governor Bush mentions about "we" a considerable amount of times while Donald Trump lectures...

...1. i want the audience to believe that donald trump taking away dacas is a very impacting part of hispanic teens’ lives. 2. Many hispanic teens rely on dacas to be able to get an education. Without dacas they can not try and get citizenship later on or make their parents proud. 3. I believe that they're important because everyone deserves a right to learn and be a part of this country.my audience may or may not believe this due to the fact that everyone has a different opinion on “immigrants” having an education.everyone wants to be able to accomplish something in life. For many teens this is finishing an education and making something of themselves. 4. My audience is people who support trump or don't support trump taking dacas away from hispanic teens.the audience probably has the same warrants as i do because many people lack an education but would love to have had one. These people want to give hispanic teens a chance and can also agree with my thesis.america can be seen as an unfair place for hispanic teens especially now that trump has targeted many of those teens with dacas. The audience can see this as an opportunity to help out and protest...

...like your whole world depended on it” for Richard Nixon’s campaign, and “Stronger together” for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. These are all examples of a rhetorical artifact that fits within a political-slogan-type genre. For my second paper, I will be analyzing Barack Obama’s slogan from his 2008 campaign. His slogan is as follows: “Change We Can Believe In” (Obama 2008). I believe this slogan follows the proper guidelines and structure of the many political slogans that have come before...

...Wearing a Mask: Analysis of Rhetorical Devices Used in 1984 and 2016 Presidential Elections In the novel 1984, George Orwell illustrates the life of a man named Winston Smith in a dystopian society. Although the government, known as the Party, in the novel certainly differs from our government today. Some of the rhetoric the novel uses have connections with those used by our major presidential candidates, Donald Trump and HiIlary Clinton. Many times, the ways that the public interprets the government’s and candidates’ actions may contrast from what they are truly saying or doing. The various strategies used by the Party and mirrored with Clinton and Trump implore that the voters take notice of these differences. Firstly, the ways the...

...If you have ever watched the news in the past year, I’m sure you have heard Donald Trump utter the famous word “Fake News.” Whether you are a fan of our new president or not, it seems undeniable that fake news is truly a real occurrence in our society. The article named “Fix the Algorithm” written to for the Daily Aztec, the SDSU school newspaper, attacks this issue by talking about the effects fake news in our world, with a specific concentration around the computer programmed algorithms that are being used to detect this fake news. This analysis will discuss the rhetorical moves made by the author, and how effective the author was at developing and delivering his argument. In the article, the bulk of the argument revolved around the discussion, is fake news good or bad for our society. It provides two main claims of other individuals discussing whether the tech companies need to correct their algorithms because of the negatives of fake news, or if it is truly good by it promotes journalism and reminds media organizations of their important duties. The author takes an unbiased and approach on the topic, by discussing both sides of the argument before coming to his opinionated conclusion that there is a need to correct the algorithms. By doing this and incorporating an inductive order of organization, the article is able to successfully keep both sides of the audience,...

...impoverished. The first important part of the early exposition is the scenes showing Balboa at work, as a loan shark for a larger operation. This job requires Balboa to confront and physically assault debted customers if unable to make their respective payment. This lays the groundwork for the journey of achieving the “American Dream”. Balboa working such a low-end, odd job just to make ends meet symbolizes the working class, more specifically the lower class. This gives insight to the struggles these people face everyday, not only through Balboa’s work as a loan shark, but the dock worker in a dirty environment who is unable to pay his loan in the same scene. Many signs throughout the early exposition align with the reasoning within the rhetorical framework. For example, Rocky attempts to go to the boxing gym but because of his lack of success and low amount of money, Mick gives Rocky’s locker to...

...execution. I thought it was normal. I rationalised the execution as punishment for betraying the Great Leader. Everything in North Korea is about unwavering loyalty to the Great Leader. Every novel. Every newspaper. Every movie. Every podcast. Every form of public information is dominated by one topic – the Great Leader. Roads are named after him, slogans praise him, and posters of him are displayed in every school. As human beings we believe what we are taught. We submit to authority and rarely question societal values. We accept what we see and hear as the ‘truth’. We fail to think critically about our nation’s ideology. Today I address you as a North Korean defector. I urge you to question societal belief systems. Your leader, Donald Trump, recently spoke about the ‘cruel dictatorship in North Korea’. His admonition towards North Korea reflected existing perceptions, with 51% of all Americans considering North...

...Rhetorical Analysis of David Zuckerman (Before the Election) It is a gripping time in today’s America, as now is the time to decide the people who are going to run this country. In many people's eyes the stakes are particularly high, as the possible political leaders in today's America have vastly different ideas. This is mostly due to the candidates running for president, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. There have been many past candidates that had the chance of becoming president, one of the more prominent ones being Bernie Sanders. Ever since Sanders came around, he has created a very big progressive follower base, this is especially true here in Vermont. However since he lost, many people are looking elsewhere to find someone similar...

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...
