Rhetorical Analysis: Speeches and Commercials

On Tuesday, we reviewed the major elements of rhetorical analysis (LPEK, WILDS/Tone, and SOAPS) and applied those terms and ideas to a series of advertisements and speeches. The items we discussed are listed below:

• Subaru Dad
• Matt Damon on Education
• Anti-Obama Ad
• China Takeover Ad
• United Ad
• Matt Damon Water/Sanitation
• Debbie Spend It Now
• Kindle Ad

Remember, that as soon as Thursday, you should be prepared to present and lead a discussion on your own example of rhetoric any day in the next two weeks.
