    Arguments based on emotion work in different media by getting the audience to feel a sense of what the advertiser is trying to convey. The effectiveness of these arguments differ based on the promoter and what they are trying to present. For example, if the promoter is trying to get a message across through a book, they have to include something that might interest readers. Unlike books, if they are trying to advertise something through television, they include something that might interest people who like watching T.V., such as “couch potatoes” etc. The approach for magazines is different. If someone is already reading a magazine they are in for ads therefore it is much easier to grab their attention. However, arguments based on emotion vary significantly on websites. You can go from a positive response to an extremely negative response in a few seconds, therefore you must be careful. Certain things an ad might portray may go against what someone believes and will instigate “hate” comments which technically may not deserve that type of classification. Others may be able to receive the emotion the ad is trying to present and therefore the ad can be successful. Newspapers are an emotionally colder source than television news in my perspective because when you are watching the news, the reporters can sound a little enthusiastic, delivering the news in a hopeful manner. When reading the newspaper, you can only interpret it how you envision it and so if the tone of the paper is depressing, then it would be emotionally colder.…

    To succeed in this generation one must do two things: achieve academic success and go to college to earn a degree. More and more women are starting to go use this formula to get ahead in life because they were taught at a young age to thrive and do their best in school. In college many experts are noticing that many less men are attending and earning degrees in male dominant fields of study. Due to the increasing focus put on women to achieve academically, young men are falling below the curve and not putting forth the effort necessary to be successful in school. In Ann Hulbert’s article, “Boy Problems,” the statistics are showing that gender and race are manipulating future jobs. Through the usage of logos, pathos, and ethos the author displays her findings.…

    King Abdullah II once said”I look at Jerusalem as being a beacon for the three monotheistic religions”. The old city of Jerusalem represents many of fascinated religious and archeological landmarks. I went there when I was 13 years old. Anyone visited this city certainly he would visit the holy places for Muslims, Christians and Jews, met people divided in a different uneven quarters, taste the most delicious food they offer in their restaurants, and visit the museums in the city.…

    As of November 20, 2014, same –sex marriage has been legalized in 35 out of 50 U.S. states. Same-sex marriage is a hot topic which the Supreme Court is considering to legalize. Many people say a homosexual person is a sinner. The question is do homosexual people choose his or her gender? They were born that way and they are happy with their lives. Homosexual people are nothing unlike heterosexual people. They are living, they are working, and they contribute to society. Proponents state that same-sex couples should have access to the same marriage benefits and public acknowledgment enjoyed by heterosexual couples and that prohibiting gay marriage is unconstitutional discrimination. On the other side, opponents argue that altering the traditional definition of marriage as between a man and a woman will further weaken a threatened institution and that legalizing gay marriage is a slippery downhill way that may lead to polygamous and interspecies marriages (gaymarriage.procon.org). All people in the world should understand the meaning of marriage, whether a same-sex marriage or a traditional marriage. For that reason, same-sex marriage should be considered as a legal marriage because it is an equal right for humankind and beneficial for society as well as preventing youth suicide.…

    In Sean Flynn’s article, “Is Anything Private Anymore”, he argues whether or not our privacy is being invaded and why we should protect ourselves. I honestly agree with Sean’s argument because it’s true how everyone’s information is being hacked. Privacy is a diminished subject for all citizens, which is being exploited or exchanged with different markets. Today, in our society people want to have as much privacy as they can, but unfortunately we can’t always get what we want! Pretty much everything that we do is being used against us either in a bad way or good way. America is supposed to be a country of “freedom”, but as you can see it’s really not. Since privacy is now set as a high demand people will do anything to gain information on another person.…

    In the story the Hunter’s in the Snow, the three protagonists were bickering throughout the entire morning. One of the main characters, Tub, shot his friend Kenny due to reflex, after Kenny had shot a dog in the head. Kenny had provoked Tub, with what most would consider an idle threat, however Tub had responded by shooting his friend in the stomach. Some might argue that Tub’s reaction was justified due to Kenny’s earlier recklessness; this suggestion is not accurate because if we all responded to threats in this matter no one would be alive.…

    Academic: In group discussions, there is always one person who has a strong viewpoint and stance on whatever the topic is and no matter what he/she doesn’t budge on his views about it. In this situation it draws out an argument and/or debate in the other students to make the one particular student see his/her views and try to alter the dominate student’s views in any way they can. If the other students can’t alter his/her views then that’s when persuasion comes in to try and persuade the student to consider changing his viewpoint.…

    Social Networking or the use of specific websites or applications to interact with other users is one of the many key and driving factors today in our world. We find ourselves lost for many minutes or possibly hours at a time on any particular app or website. Looking deeper into the issue of social networking and its impact on our life, I highly doubt we have accomplished anything at all. A very smart man once said, “Time is money.” If that quote is true do we find ourselves in the twenty first century wasting money on pictures of people we don’t even know and moments we were not a part of?…

    The definition of abortion is; “the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus.” The abortion controversy is one of the biggest debates that have been going on for years. Many people feel that aborting an unwanted child should be outlawed. Others consider it as immoral and possibly even murder. I support the right to privacy and the idea women should have the choice to do what she pleases with her own body. As a female, I believe that the government has no right to dictate what happens to a woman’s body. Therefore, everyone should become pro-choice.…

    From fire to light bulbs, and pagers to smart-phones, humans have always sought progress. The average person can agree that most new things are for the better. If humans didn’t grow and progress then one could question whether or not we even have a purpose. One thing that humans have lacked the necessary progression in is the place that homosexuals have in society. Same-sex marriage has recently begun to be legalized by several states. At this point 13 states allow same-sex marriage. The fact that the other 37 cannot accept same-sex marriage state makes me feel embarrassed to be human. Some argue that they cannot accept homosexuals as being equal to heterosexual people. Some argue that marriage is between a man and a woman only, because it has always been defined that way. This definition should evolve, the same way everything else does over time. Some argue that same-sex marriage would threaten Christianity and violate its teachings. Our country was built upon Christianity, and some believe that biblical morals should have a strong role in the government. The separation of church and state should undoubtedly apply to this issue. Same-sex marriage should be legalized because it would promote equality, social stability, and help boost the economy.…

    As a high school student, there is nothing worse than taking classes you know you will never use. But, in most cases the average student does not understand the impact of what we learn today on the rest of our lives. In today’s culture of vast travel and communication, the world we live in is getting seemingly smaller. This puts an added incentive on foreign language classes due to the additional doors they open up in the future.…

    Wouldn’t a person do anything to stay alive? The fastest way to get an organ is to buy it. As the person waits, the lesser chance for herself/himself to get better or stay alive. The government should legalize organ sales to increase the supply of organs in order to save more lives; there will not be a shortage of organs when needed. Since there were always been shortage and conflicts on organ donation, it would be better to legalize selling and buying organs because many people would pay money for an organ and many will be willing to sell their organ to have money in exchange. Many operations have been cancelled due to lack of organ supplies. Since organ sales in America are illegal, transplant tourism has increased. Many people would oppose to legalizing organ sales because those people believes that each person, whether rich or poor, must have equal medical benefits.…
