When writing my essay I plan to first find an article that interests me and then locate its ethos, logos and pathos. Normally pathos and logos are easy for me to find because its the logical parts and the emotions of the article. On the other hand, ethos is more difficult for me to find because it is the character that is in the article and this can be harder to detect.

The hardest part of this essay will be finding an article that I will be able to write three to four pages on. This will have to be a long and interesting article so I do not get bored and repeat myself.

Outline:

Check New York Times for a good interesting article

Find and discuss ethos

Find and discuss logos

Find and discuss pathos

Talk about the style and tone of the article

Conclude with things they could make it better with
