Analysis: The Jerry Springer Show

In her comic-style article you can see there is a lot of visuals as you go through the reading. The visuals throughout the article helps the readers get her ideas more clearly than a regular article with no images. For example, on the first page of the article she talks about homophily and even though she gives the definition before the word, the picture of her in a flock of birds can help the reader understand and visually see that homophily means the groups we associate ourselves that have similar views to us. Not only do the visuals help the reader understand her argument but it also makes the reader look more

In our modern society today I think that we can now discuss our political differences and beliefs in peace and overall our nation is one that is very united as a whole. We live in a country that strongly follows Grant’s belief in equal rights for everyone in which citizens are able to vote for who

The authors tell the reader that a picture must be interpreted like an essay or piece of writing. The motive and goal of the author or photographer must be figured out.

The intended audience is the person, or group of people, to whom the author is writing. The intended audience is a key factor to the author’s essay, because it is to whom he wants his essay to be directed as a message towards. We placed a picture of those who were being discriminated against, because the message had not been received of the author writing the essay. Our most important slide was on the thesis. It was absolutely necessary to make this part of our presentation, because it controls the subject matter of the essay and states something significant to the reader. Slides nine had to do with objectivity. This is extremely important, because it proves if the author is credible for his work or not, based on him being biased or unbiased. Slides ten through fifteen were based upon the six elements in the implicit writing of a non-fiction essay. This was an essential part of our presentation, because these qualities are an outline of what readers look for, and what writers should strive to accomplish, in effective

As most of us become conscious of the effects of homelessness, the mental disorders and the increased need for welfare, we start to recognize how important the issue is. When educated, we are extremely capable of coming together as a nation. We know what it is to advocate, to fight for what we believe in. That is how this country came to be, isn't it? With an mighty passion for building a better life for our children?

Kevin Boyle target as his audience the “professional” or the “student” this meaning Boyle did not make this book with the intention to make it understandable for everyone but for the ones familiarized with the topic. Moreover, we can conclude this by the complex narrative used, and assumption that the reader is familiarized with the main theme. Boyle could reach the audience more by giving more background information and using a simpler narrative, also making the target audience everyone who is interested in the topic.

Although books full of words are more efficient in delivering and describing what the author feels, sometimes pictures can give a deep meaning depending on how they are organized. The Veil by Marjane Satrapi’s is a graphic novel that’s organized in a particular way, to deliver a certain message through the pictures. Marjane includes different sizes and frames that serve what she is thinking and feeling. Choosing certain sizes, frames and colours isn’t arbitrary. As each box increases in size, it means that she wants to emphasize the message behind that box, or show her relation to that particular text. Contrast is also one of the main elements that Marjane uses in her graphic novel. For example, on page five, there is a big picture of

Jordan was forcefully optimistic that social change is possible, and this optimism set the tone for her speech. It remains a speech that is strikingly relevant to the political problems confronting us today. We are all aware that partisan gridlock and dysfunction define the day-to-day political process in today’s Washington. Cynicism and lack of confidence in government are at record levels. Liberals might blame a Republican Party that seems doggedly unwilling to work with President Obama on a host of issues; conservatives might blame the President and other Democrats for pursuing a liberal policy agenda with which they can find no area for compromise. This ideological stalemate seems to have no end in sight, and it feeds a widespread cynicism about the political process itself.

This week, many topics have been discussed in class with the importance of understanding context and analyzing visual texts. On Monday, in a class discussion we read a letter from Jourdon Anderson and looking at five different cereal boxes. The letter was from an old servant, provoke the Colonel. The former “employee” Jourdon to come back and work. Instead of accepting the opportunity, Jourdan decline the offer. He didn’t want to come back to work, because he is worried for his children’s safety. Even though, he doesn’t have a good life. He rather be where he is at right now and not moving to where his former employee at.

The reader can imagine Jourdan’s feeling, emotion when he wrote the letter, and by the words he used. The reader can imagine how his former employee will feel when he read the letter. Remember when the time I was beaten until you bowed down on my feet and pray to live? I find that this letter is very interesting.

Rhodes article got published in The New York Times on September 17th 2000. He is also a well-respected author with a fair share number of books under his belt. Rhodes’ audience is New York Times’ readers, who might be parents of young children. The author’s intention is to both persuade and debunk the notion that the media is the only source to blame for violent behavior. He is writing in a formal style that although there is a target audience, it is still unknown because other audiences can read it due to being published in a public news outlet. He is using objective facts and interpreting it in a subjective manner to prove his point.

It is very important for the audience to have an understanding of the message the writer is trying to say. Singman’s article is full of different techniques which make her article intelligible for a majority of her audience.

The way we put words together can make a huge difference to your audience. This is the reason why we need to be for careful with our word choice, depending on what we want our audience to take from our writing. We also need to understand that not everyone will be able to understand if we do not put it in a format that is clear to the

Rhetorical Analyses Is identity in the hands of others or of the individuals in question? Two people who probably asked themselves that question were those highlighted in the texts, “The Jerry Springer Show” and Nikki S. Lee’s photo album, Champaign and Nikki S. Lee.
