Have you ever been driving and wanted to listen to music from your iphone or music device rather than the radio, but had no way to connect your phone? Well Ford has introduced Bluetooth in their entire line of cars to help individuals who want to listen to their music in their car, connect hassle free. I found this ad when searching the internet, and it appears to be from a magazine which gives clues that this ad is a little old. In this ad people looking to listen to their own music rather than radio in their car are the intended audience. Ford here is trying to convince them to buy a Ford vehicle because they can provide this luxury. After looking at this ad even with very little shown on the ad still conveys Ethos, Logos, and Pathos very well.
The purpose of this text is to persuade people to buy a Ford vehicle because they come with Bluetooth built in. This is supported by the pairs of headphones in knots on the advertisement. Making you remember pulling a tangled pair of headphones out to listen to music in your car, but not being able to because your headphones were in a knot.
The intended audience for this piece of rhetoric is individuals looking for a way to connect their music to their cars speakers …show more content…

There are three pieces of ethos that really stood out to me and these are them. First the fact that Bluetooth and Ford are shown to have made a business deal. To support this down in the bottom right hand corner text, it says every new Ford comes equipped with Bluetooth thus pairing these two big brands. Second Bluetooth also has their trademark in the bottom left hand corner further adding to the authenticity. Third was the use of Apple cables to show the knots in headphones to get Ford's point across. The professionalism shown in this ad also made the intended point clear making the credibility of this ad very

Using each and every single one of these rhetorical appeals, the audience is given ample information on the repercussions that texting while driving can cause. Despite having a weaker use of logos, the appeal still works in the ad because it is complimented and strengthened through the use of the pathos, ethos, and Kairos to convey the message that texting while driving is dangerous. One of the strongest appeals that helps to support logos, was the expert use of pathos. Through pathos, the ad organization is able to connect with teenage drivers by confronting their most vulnerable point – their emotions. Teenagers tend to be very emotional because of the point of life that they’re at is a difficult phase between puberty, becoming an adult,

Aired in 2013, the Volkswagen Polo Vivo “The Answer is 11” commercial was like no other. The setting, from prior knowledge, is in a college classroom, because of the giant chalkboard and a really big classroom, where the stereotypical guy sleeps in class and guesses the answer, eleven, correctly. The commercial is being drawn more towards college men or men in their early twenties. The reasoning behind the statement is because the sleeping male student is being called on by the professor and at the end of the commercial the male is driving the vehicle. The reason behind that is because there are females present but none of them drove the vehicle or have a big role in this commercial.
