you will have three body paragraphs, one each evaluating how well the author used ethos (credibility), pathos, and logos to support the central message. We are trying to evaluate what good speakers do well to sell us on their message.

This paper should be at least 700 words, but no more than 850. The paper should be formatted correctly MLA style and written in third person (do not use the words I, me, us, we, or you). The essay should also contain citations and a works cited list based on your selected essay in the assigned readings.
