in Jacob sholls article, I thought it was interesting that he discussed how fake news came about. I would like to see more examples of how is arised in the older days.
Andersen creates an ironic tone throughout his article by stating how we have gone downhill over the years, yet we still continue to live and support our government by paying taxes and working. #RHUB100
I’m both article, switek and shermer make the assumption that their audience has seen the show “ancient aliens”. This hurts their article because if they haven’t seen the show they lose interest. #RHUB100
@JayJudan Interesting you brought that up. As I read the article I wondered why he included his own life experience when he had multiple sources. I like the way this is written. #RHUB100
I thought it was interesting that carr used his logos to build his ethos. It made the article stronger and created firm atmosphere for the text to be presented. #RHUB100
In my opinion, Anderson’s assumptions make his argument less reliable. Throughout his writing, I believe he loses credibility and comes off as unorganized.
@jeneiah16 As well as his use of factual evidence he uses personal experience that sets a foundation of trust toward himself from the audience. #RHUB100
In the part where thompson provides statistical evidence that technology is part of society, thompson emphasizes the impact is had on billions of people and the way it has morphed our society into what it is today. I believe Thompson successfully presents his case. #RHUB100
I like this. I think it is important we do not categorize everyone together. Many people use a smartphone because it simply makes their jobs and life’s easier. What’s the harm in that? #RHUB100
Roy Germano explains in his article that after giving up a smartphone for a couple weeks, he finally had to check his email to stay caught up at work. Jamison Hill amplifies this by stating that many people need their phones to stay in constant contact with their bosses. #RHUB100
Jane Brody wrote an article providing statistics that smartphone addiction is ruining social interaction. This add to Jamison Hills article by supporting his previous argument that a person can be “addicted” to their smartphone for a variety of reasons. #RHUB100
I am in agreement with you on this one. I believe that things such as facebook and instagram can be useful when staying connected to distant relatives or friends. It becomes harmful when social media is used in a negative manner. #RHUB100
A topic interesting to me is video games and their effect on children’s education. I believe that the overuse of video games has caused not only a bad habit of adolescents but and disrupt in their learning curve. Using rhetorical strategies I believe this can be changed. #RHUB100
