Real life rhetoric examples

This is an example of rhetoric. It uses mainly logos and pathos.



This intention of this video is to persuade people to help animals. It uses music and video create an emotional response or pathos. Throughout the video, facts are given appealing to logos or logic.The main speaker in the video is a famous singer and animal rights activist. Her fame is used to appeal to ethos or credibility.

It is effective because it is hard for most people to see others, even animals in pain. The images plus the music make it seem very sad for the animals. The song is called Arms of the Angels. To me, this sounds like each one of us can be an angel to an animal in need. It makes me feel like I would be doing something important if I helped an animal through a rescue organization.
