Choose any current (within the last seven days) news article THAT EXPRESSES AN OPINION for your analysis. Include a link to the article at the top of your forum posting. Articles that express opinions are usually located in the Opinion, Op-Ed, or Editorial sections of a news publication. You can find these sections in any national, credible news publication or site.
Write a three-paragraph analysis of the article using the three elements of rhetoric according to Aristotle(logos,ethos,pathos). Logos mean the argument, logic facts that back it up, Ethos is credibility, Pathos is emotional connection.Analyze one element of the news article in each paragraph. Be sure that each of your paragraphs begins with a strong, specific topic sentence.
Do not debate the issue or topic of the article. The purpose of this work is to get some hands-on experience in recognizing and untangling how persuasive writing works. Thus, it will be easier for you to find material to analyze if you choose an article that is an op-ed, editorial, opinion, or other such piece.
