So my example of a fallacy happens to fall under Ethos, Pathos, and Logos! Its a commercial from a SuperPac called Winning our future which supports Newt Gingrich. The Tv Ad fall way into a fallacy. You can view it at
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-57359219-503544/new-romney-attacks-from-pro-gingrich-super-pac/
This is completely a fallacy because it is a negative political Ad which is reasonable, but deceptive. As well as it look like true facts, because Romney did work at Bain and helped the Steel Plant, but when it closed, he wasn't even at Bain, but at the Salt Lake City Olympics. As well as they said it closed in Kansas but was actually in South Carolina like the quote says below.
Here is a quote from CBS News that talks about how falsifed the ad is.
"the article said the plant closure was in Kansas City - and not South Carolina - and that it happened in 2001, two years after Romney left Bain to run the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City"
Now as for the speech from Henry V
Ethos
- He is a King, so he has writer’s credibility. He is a person trusted by the people.
- He has experience, so as well has writers credibility of the situation and can be reliable of what he says.
Logos
- He reasons that as many have already died, that we need to fight for them and end bloodshed
- He relates to them, with common knowledge of the community
Pathos
- He is very emotional as he describes the deadliness of the war, thus influencing and moving the audience to support him
- He also uses many descriptive words and phrases that can bring emotions to the audience
I gave it my best... I'm probably wrong on a few :/
