Reich Rhetorical Analysis
In my opinion, Reich does not reason emotionally. He has dialectical, logical explanations for why he is asking people to sign a petition to the CEOs of Walmart and McDonald`s. He proves that his work is not driven by feelings or personal preferences when he says: “Well, look, let`s be clear. I have nothing against Walmart…”and then proceeds with explanations and thought-provoking questions that prove his case and illustrate his reflective thinking. For example, “But doesn't the biggest employer in the United States have any social responsibility whatsoever?

    Chapter 4, we learned the various aspects of an audience, when preparing a written or electrical document. How did I consider my audience needs and interests as I developed the presentation about Great Calls marketing strategy? I put myself in their shoes and considered the expectations that a manager of a large cellular company would expect. I recognized their time is valuable and I would need to be quick and direct. I also thought that I would have to put together a presentation that was professional and eye catching and brought valuable information to helping them direct the company to a new solution to increase customer attention. Who was my audience? The people I am presenting to are five managers of Genuine Cellular, who I assume are…

    The two main elements of Benjamin Zanders presentation that stood out the most to me was the exercises about impulses within music and how the audience was able to identify them within a classical piece and then the fact that nobody is tone deaf. The impulse within music and how the audience was able to identify them within a classical piece was significant to me because it was an easy way for those in the audience who had no experience with music to pick up the subtle ideas of how to follow the music. Then the fact nobody was tone deaf was significant to me because I thought that most amateur ears would not be able to follow with a scale. However, after hearing what the audience sang it made me realize how true that statement is and how easy…

    The level of anti-socialist talk I've been hearing lately is amazing to me. The world's biggest socialist program is the tremendously wonderful U.S. Military. I would ask anyone spewing anti-socialist rhetoric to kindly fight ISIS by themselves. Drowning at the beach? Don't bother flagging down a lifeguard. Is your house on fire? Too bad, better put it out yourself. Robbed, sick, hurt at work? You're on your own. Want to visit one of our many majestic state and federal parks? You're not welcome. They don't exist in the universe you seem to desire.…

    Adolf Hitler entered Kroll Opera House on the first of September, 1939, as his troops prepared to invade Poland. Propaganda was a major facet of Nazi Germany’s success and this speech reiterates the plight of Germany, Hitler’s beliefs on who was to blame for their failing economy, and what must be done about the crisis. Like many of Hitler’s speeches, outside of those in physical attendance, nations all over the world had tuned in via radio where these speeches were translated in real time. This event was known as a Reichstag Extraordinary Session, a council meeting called upon by the President of the Reich or a majority of the council members. Beyond the live audience, English translations of the transcripts of this speech and others like it have been collected by Yale University through the Avalon Project. This primary source is a vital window into the beliefs of Hitler’s regime and its supporters, as well as evidence of the corruption and propaganda presented during World War II.…

    By making connections to the text, Resisting Hitler, I am able to further my understanding of how the characters feel and where their motivation comes from. When watching on TV about all those rebellions around the world in the past years and even now, it isn’t that hard to see the fire that sparks in the people’s eyes. I automatically see their energy and motivation within them, that drives them to do whatever it takes to get their opinion across, even if it means dying. By being able to realize the reality of wanting something so bad, I can understand how Helmuth did everything he could to go up against Hitler.…

    In this particular Skittles commercial, that I may add has been banned from being broadcasted in the United States depicts two “lovers” on their honey moon.

It is now a comical and very popular video that is now flooding the World Wide Web. Many people have seen this video, yet it has very controversial content within it.…

    “The Squint and the Wail” is an essay by Michael Hsu. Hsu, a Taiwanese American author and editor, wrote this essay in order to express his views on the negative connotations that occur with some of the racially charged objects present in society. More specifically, the essay deals with the stereotypical nature of The Chin Family. The Chin Family is the name of Stefano Giovannoni’s tabletop collection, which includes salt and pepper shakers that have the caricaturized facial expressions of Chinese people (Giovanni, 404). In this essay, Hsu talks about the appalling nature of the stereotypical features and how those features pose a derogatory inference to Chinese culture, but then reciprocates his views on the tabletop collection to a more neutral stance. Hsu’s main claim is that it is derogatory to exaggerate on the racial-specific physical features of a race and to present that exaggeration to the public under the guise of an everyday tool. Hsu’s piece shows race from a particular perspective and then compares that perspective to the perspectives of the individuals he associates himself with. Hsu’s persuasive approach can be broken down and interpreted by viewing his stance through ethos, pathos, logos, and mythos.…

    In South Central, Los Angeles, there is a food epidemic taking place among the population. For miles and miles, the only easily attainable food source is fast food; causing the overconsumption of un-nutritious, greasy, and fattening food. This is the problem brought to the public’s attention by speaker Ron Finley in his Ted Talks speech, “A Guerilla Gardener in South Central L.A.” Finley explains how everywhere he looks in his native South Central, all he sees are fast food chains and Dialysis clinics opened due to the lack of nutritious food. Finley views the lack of a healthy food source as a serious problem, and brings up his point; there are miles of vacant lots throughout Los Angeles, all of which could be used for the cultivation of healthy fruits and vegetables to better the urban community’s diet and health.…

    Modern society has advanced into the age of technology, in which people rely on cell phones, music players, and even communicate through social networking. Facebook is the leading social networking site, and is the basis for Hal Niedzviecki's essay "Facebook in a Crowd". Two rhetorical devices do support the argument that is presented later in the essay, and they are humor and pathos appeal. Niedzviecki also uses a narrative form of writing to tell a story about a man with a near seven-hundred online friends on Facebook, but he does not know any of them. Facebook has become an issue for some people, and that becomes a personal issue for the narrator, that develops the argument being expressed throughout the essay.…
