discussion question

I’m working on a communications multi-part question and need a reference to help me learn.

First, reply by responding to the following:

Watch one of the speech videos below and answer the following: Who is the speaker/rhetor, what was the purpose, and how did the speaker use logos, pathos, and ethos? Did they use all three proofs? Clearly identify specific moments in the speech as you identify their use of logos, pathos, and ethos. Do you believe that the speech was successful? Why or why not?

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) Responds to Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL)

We’ve discussed the sophists, Plato, and Aristotle’s perspectives on rhetoric and t/Truth so far. In this response, I want you to consider what is your position. Of the three sides, which theorist(s) do you side with most? What is your position on the notion of t/Truth (little t vs capital T truth)? If you still feel unsure about what t/Truth is, spend time describing what your understanding of it is so far.
