Bill O'Reilly

persuade and manipulate their audience into their perspective of "the real" news. Hence, this is one of the best examples of a bad ethos and how ethos can be used in various different ways. Ethos, a Greek word explained and demonstrated by a Greek philosopher Aristotle, means to show credibility and honesty within ones work or argument. Thus, with the examples "The O 'Reilly Factor", as well as "The Arete Of Amusement...", it is shown how ethos can effect ones perspective as well as the audience. In the example of "The O 'Reilly Factor" , Bill O 'Reilly tries to cut off Jeremy Glick and argue against his opinions. However, with Jeremy Glick showing good ethos as well as information, facts and common sense, he soon begins to bring attention to the audience on how Bill O 'Reilly does not approve of him even thought he is credible. Hence, this leads to O 'Reilly stating "Shut up" various amount of times throughout the interview. Thus, this presents how Bill O 'Reilly is not credible, honest and does not have good information or facts to back up his argument, which leaves him without a choice but to cancel the show earlier. Moreover, this shows Fox news is biased and only…

country. Colbert makes homophobia seem single-minded, sexists look like Neanderthals, censorship childish, and Racists as outdated and unwanted as the United States’ Postal Service. As I stated earlier satire is a complicated form of comedy, as an example the Stephen Colbert you have likely seen today on the Colbert Report is not actually what the man is like off camera. Though I know from news interviews of Colbert being out of character that he is Catholic, from the South, but is not…

reinforced early in most girls ' development; studies have found that nearly half of females ages 6-8 have stated that they want to be slimmer” (Striegel-Moore & Franko). It’s quite saddening to see children think this way. Even I find myself constantly comparing my appearance to famous women or girls I see on instagram, in movies, etc. Most of the time it 's an unattainable dream of perfection. People will make up what they please to make themselves feel comfortable in their sexist opinions.…

The student government body is similar to that of the House of Representatives. Each person on the governing body gets to express their view points. Also like the House of Representatives, the student legislative body is overseen by an assembly or legislative chair. The legislative chair is responsible for setting an agenda to be discussed each week at the general body meetings. On the agenda, bills are up for vote and discussion. Usually, a member of the legislative body will propose a bill to…

process requires the president and congress to work together to create laws. Article 1 of the constitution states that “all legislative powers granted herein shall be vested in a congress of the united states” (Fisher 2007, 84). Congress is made up of two chambers, the House of Representatives and the Senate, both of these chambers share an equal role in creating legislation (Chamberlain 1946). The president also has an important role in creating legislation at the beginning of the process and…

“California equal pay bill may be toughest in nation” (Masunaga 2015). This article was written by Samantha Masunaga and published in the Los Angeles Times. The Los Angeles Times has been in circulation for more than 130 years and has won over 40 Pulitzer prizes. The paper has been accused of having a liberal bias, but I do not feel that it has any bearing on this particular story. Samantha Masunaga attended UC Berkley Graduate School of Journalism. Prior to joining the staff at the Los Angeles…

Of course, Jack and Bill also have more investigations to do thanks to some information that has come to light regarding Mr. Gowen. I simply adore the pairing of these two--kind of like the dynamic duo of the Old West. One has to go by the books, and the other can be a little more creative in his interpretation of the law. Together, they are invincible as they solve whatever crime or perceived crime comes their way. As Bill, Jack is handsome, rugged and certainly committed to justice at any…

brutally executed by Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley who committed the acts under the motive of revenge for the deaths of Eric Garner, Michael Brown and others who died due to police brutality. Prior to the shootings, Brinsley shot his ex-girlfriend, who reported the incident to the Baltimore Police. Baltimore authorities then tracked Brinsley’s and warned NYPD, minutes later the officers were killed. Violent Acts such as this can be prevented, if such programs like the Blue Alert were to be adopted…

from someone who may be too far removed from the middle class way of life and its worries or someone whose suggestions are idealized snippets with little practical value. So, what to do when the refund arrives: Pay those Pesky Bills Most of us have them and if you don't, well then, you're already one step ahead, but many of us have at least one pesky bill. I'm not talking about a medical bill or credit card. They don't really fit into the pesky bill category, what does, however is a utility…
