Advertisements are the key way to get a buyer's attention. The seller has to be able to put out a quick message, to make the buyer want and need the product which they are trying to tell. Now looking at types of advertisements such as Pathos, and Ethos, we often see these in a lot of ads and billboards. Pathos building that emotions in the buyer, and Ethos telling someone's character, of that person and building their trust. However, a form of advertisements that we don’t see that often would have to be logos, where it just tells us the facts of the product. Ads like these are still very common for companies like Apple, where they make a video of just the facts of the products without building that emotion of the character, buyers still want to put their money into this company. The question is how come Logos is not used more often than the others? …show more content…
However Logos is not bad at all, as proven in this ad by Apple, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4wEI5zhHB0, They give us all the facts about the new iPhone X without making us feel emotional, or even using a famous person to get us to buy the product. Apple knows that people trust apple already for there great quality phones. Now with that being said, the reason I believe that many companies don't use Logos is that they don't know how to bring in that creativity that the other two share. We know that humans would much rather look at something bright and colorful, with actors telling us how much they love XYZ product, to make people want to get it rather than say what it really does. Companies also now know, that the buyers know what is inside the products and that we know how many products are the same things just with different prices. Because of this, companies need to get the attention of buyers in another way, thus them using ethos and
Logos Based on my understanding, Zunes does a great job stating his logos using the title and the subtitle. There are 10 things that Zunes would like to go over with readers that everyone in the world should be aware of, but often not. Therefore, a particular introductory paragraph that that arguments have may not be needed. The title and the subtitle are informative and clear.
Throughout the BBC News article, the writer Tejvan Pettinger uses and immense amount of logos to capture and inform his readers of facts that are relevant to the questionable topic. Interestingly he does this by using his vast plethora of sources and social experimental studies that the English news broadcasting station (BBC) has to offer. However, were Pettinger shines and shows true understanding of the English rhetoric is how he presents the information he has compiled into an organized informative. He bluntly presents his arguments in the unorthodox form of a list. Thereafter, he allows the information under each argument to flow and contradict yet, complement each other.
All authors, at varying levels, write with purpose. Ever written work has a purpose, varying from artistic creativity to academic and professional curiosity. Although the purpose is evident to the author, the reader may find difficulty determining what that purpose is. In the case of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) public release on Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), the document’s purpose, as well as its intended audience, can be determined through an introspective analysis. One can use the three rhetorical appeals of logos, pathos, and ethos to determine the purpose of the CDC’s document, and give one’s self insight into the audience for which it is intended.

Some Contemporary Issues is an article found on Gale database with an unknown author and with an unknown intended audience. The article seems to inform the audience about Native American issues he or she would not know prior to reading. The unknown author effectively uses many tactics to pursue the audience to his or her point of view. The two that stand out the most are pathos and logos.
Ethos, pathos, and logos are the three rhetorical techniques. Ethos appeals to ethics or character, pathos appeals to the emotion of the audience, and logos appeals to logic by using credible facts. Out of these three, I would say logos is most effective when trying to persuade someone. When an author uses logos, they use facts and evidence to back up their claim. This includes examples and sources.
When applied correctly, soliloquies successfully allow the reader to experience characters in their most vulnerable state: within their own minds. Hamlet is no exception to this principle, as Shakespeare’s mastery of rhetoric in establishing the main character’s inner conflict provides depth and rawness to his complex character. In this well-known soliloquy, Shakespeare employs logos to acknowledge that death can be both a relief and nightmare due to natural human emotions; accordingly, Hamlet personifies a severe case of teenage depression by simultaneously wishing for an end to suffering yet remaining hesitant to act on his own thoughts due to his fear of the unknown. Throughout this passage, Hamlet attempts to rationalize ending his life over continuing to endure the painful reality of his existence. The parallelism in this particular soliloquy serves several rhetorical purposes, including the development of an implicit contrast between Hamlet’s mental state and the actual organization of his thoughts.

Reflective paragraph: The rhetorical appeal I used consisted mostly of logos. Which according to pathosethoslogos.com means the appeal to logic, by convincing an audience by use of logic or reason. I did this by using mostly fact (e.g. The truth is told about how the plane disappeared, what debris was found and what investigations is going on to find out what happened to the plane). I used the message and tweet from the twitter account @strayedaway which isn’t accredited as well as Mister Peter McMahon who cannot be completely trusted since we do not know if he is actually a real person but he had an job that made him sound intelligent and he was asked to be involved in the project thus people would more likely believe him.

From the signage of the London Underground to the logo for Apple, 20th-century graphic design permeates popular culture. But few logos have the ubiquity of Glaser’s “I [heart] NY”, which has the elegant perfection of an algebraic formula. Designed at a time when the city was considered by many to be bordering on unlivable due to its high crime rate, corrupt city officials, and urban flight, the logo cleverly, yet simply, plays on the duality of the word and the image of love. Ripped off around the world, it has a good claim to being the most frequently imitated logo ever conceived.
