In the article, “To Donate your Kidney Click Here” by Daniela Lamas, the authority derives from social media websites that deal with the matter of organ transplants and finding potential donors.

Logos, ethos, and pathos are essential components used in advertising. By learning to recognize logos, ethos, and pathos in advertising, we are able to understand the message and what is being portrayed. (Albert et al, 2014), suggested that Aristotle postulated that a speaker’s ability to effectively convince an audience is constructed on how well the speaker appeals to that audience in three different areas: logos, ethos, and pathos. These appeals together form what Aristotle calls a rhetorical triangle.

The use of rhetoric is powerful, dangerous, and has the influence to change people’s opinion. So in the article “Art of the Steal: This Is How Trump Lost $916M and Avoided Tax” David Cay Johnston effectively uses rhetoric to suede his viewers towards his opinion. Johnston uses pathos, ethos, logos, tonal shifts, and inductive and deductive reasoning to try to explain to his readers how the presidential candidate ,Donald Trump, lost and made money..The author explains how the use of ethos, the appealing towards ethics, helps shift the audience’s view of Donald Trump. Johnston also uses the emotions of the reader to help his own claim, through the use of pathos. Through the use of logos, the use of logic, the

Adding to his ethos appeal, Tom Junod uses a strong appeal to logos, by implementing facts and statically data to support his ideas. He points out the fact that not after the plane had struck the tower that they began jumping and jumping in the tower fell. With forensic evidence and the use of USA Today footage it was conclude that two hundred people died that day from jumping. Junod continues with statistical data: “Both are intolerable estimates of human loss, but if the number provided by USA Today is accurate, then between 7 and 8 percent of those who died in New York City on September 11, 2001, died by jumping out of the buildings. … ratio is more like one in six. …

During the Tom Robinson case, Atticus had to defend Tom Robinson, an African American, from Robert Ewell’s accusation that Robinson had raped his daughter. Atticus asserted that Robinson cannot use his left hand, the oppressor’s item of harming Mayell Ewell, the crime has been committed surely so someone had blatantly pursued this act, and that this case is prejudice where whites have a much larger priority than African Americans. He also uses Aristotle’s Thee Appeals, ethos and logos and pathos, in his arguments in which makes that no holes can be punctured through his argument.

This one minute film is a motivating, lifesaver once you watch it. It can help motivate you to seek something in your life you always wanted. Director John X.

In Neil Postman’s novel, Amusing Ourselves to Death, he argues that rationality in America has become dictated by television. Through the use of ethos, pathos, and logos, Postman demonstrates that his claim is valid and reliable. These are three forms of persuasion that are used to influence others to agree with a particular point of view. Ethos, or ethical appeal, is used to build an author’s image. Ethos establishes a sense of credibility and good character for the author (Henning). Pathos, or emotional appeal, involves engaging “an audience's sense of identity, their self-interest, their emotions” (Henning). If done correctly, the power of emotions can allow the reader to be swayed to agree with the author. Logos, or logical appeal,

We the people live in a world filled with ominous and perplexing events that make us question if the world we live in is actually as transparent as we perceive it. In the documentary, Ethos: Time to Unslave Humanity, we get an interpretation of America’s political, economical, and social being and how everything is less concrete than openly known. Extremely far from stone cold facts, there are still ideas and arguments that are being made throughout that attempt to achieve aspects of ethos, pathos, and logos.

In this essay, I will closely examine the role of ethos, pathos, and logos as they were utilized in the 1992 Presidential Debate video clip. Throughout Clinton and Bush’s debates, they used the three options of persuasion effectively and discretely; however, it is evident that out of the three ways of persuasion, the candidates used ‘pathos’ because of the content they were providing. It was apparent that Bill Clinton was more prepared to display forms of persuasion than George H.W. Bush was because Clinton had prior experience dealing with lower income people. In the upcoming paragraphs, I will explain and analyze how each candidate made use of the three forms of persuasion: logos, pathos, and ethos.

In many papers you will notice different types of persuasion that help the writer to give a reader a better of understanding of the paper. These types of persuasion are called rhetorical appeals. Each appeal has its own ability to give to the writer's paper, ethos is the credibility of the work the writer is using, pathos is appealing to the audience’s emotions, and lastly logos is the logical appeal. When writing a paper a person generally uses at least one rhetorical appeal to persuade their audience.

The bullying issue is one that should not be ignored. It is a serious issue, but using satire, it is easy to bring it up lightly, without crossing the imaginary boundary line. Throughout my essay, I used satirical devices such as pathos, tone and exaggeration. Pathos can be expressed by giving examples that the reader can relate to. “I’m sure that many can relate to that very upsetting feeling when one receives a test grade that did not reach expectations” is one example of how I embedded pathos into my essay.

In understanding official multiculturalism in a broader context, it is necessary to first examine it basic values, and namely, what sort of society is multiculturalism attempting to promote?

“Manners to be Observed by Teachers and Students” is a volume of the book The Revival of Religious Learning written by Abū Ḥāmid Muhammad ibn Muhammad al-Ghazālī, best known as al-Ghazālī. On his argument, al-Ghazālī uses a focal point on eighteen duties that students and teachers should apply to school in order to improve education, ten for the students and eight for the teachers. In this passage, al-Ghazālī does not appear to use any logical nor scientific proof or evidence to support his argument, but his ethos (persuasion through the audience’s perception of the speaker). I agree with almost all of al-Ghazālī’s beliefs, but there are also some hypotheses that he states that a considerable part of the people will be against or just take them as ambiguous, all of this for the matter that he does not use other concrete facts to strongly support his point of view than his persuasion. With this, the passage opens a door for readers to look at situations build upon their own perspective; unfortunately, the real connotation of its ideals can vary or being altered depending on the reader personal experiences.

School curriculums and the materials that students are exposed to in schools have often been the cause of controversy. What some people may view as essential for students to be introduced to, others may view as detrimental for students and their values. Censorship in schools has serious consequences, as the materials used drastically change students’ views about the world and their morals. Schools should be expected to introduce their students to harsh realities and expose them to a multitude of perspectives. They should generally not be expected to censor the content that they deliver to students, as this prevents students from discovering and learning from mistakes made in the past, dissuades them from exploring various perspectives, and gives them a false perception of society.
