Blog Post #2: Arguments Based on Emotion (Pathos)
For our class on 1/18, read the chapter on Arguments Based on Emotion (Pathos). Then, look for arguments that use emotional appeals-- some examples may include slogans, sales pitches, visual ads, arguments from news and entertainment shows, films, brochures, magazines, Web sites, street protests, and so on. Post the example of your choosing to your blog (including visuals, if you have any), and respond to the following questions: What specific emotions do your example(s) appeal? How do the makers of the arguments try to connect with their target audience? (Due 1/18)
