Coca-Cola is one of the biggest soft drink businesses in the world so when a Coca-Cola was asking a book company to change their slogan because they were the same, it made them seem a bit unprofessional. Ira C Herbert a representative of Coca-Cola, wrote to Richard Seaver the Executive Vice President of Grove Press Inc. to modify their slogan to something different he uses rhetorical devices such as pathos, logos, and diction. Mr. Ira C. Herbert starts off his letter getting straight to the point. He uses diction to make sure Mr. Seaver knows that they are confident the company will remove the slogan. “We believe you will agree…” or “We appreciate your cooperation and your assurance that you will discontinue the use of ‘It’s the real thing.’” He uses the word ‘we’ to make sure Seaver knows Coca-Cola is relying on them that they will discontinue the logan. Additionally, Mr. Herbert also uses logos to show the company owned the saying first. Herbert says, “‘It’s the Real Thing’ was first used in advertising for Coca-Cola over twenty-seven years ago …show more content…
He explains why changing is unnecessary and absurd. Seaver says,”...we have instructed all our salesmen to notify bookstores that whenever a customer comes in and asks for a copy of Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher they should request the sales personnel to make sure that what the customer wants is a book rather than a Coke.” He’s mocking Coca-Cola and its consumers that they are foolish enough to confuse a book with a bottle of Coke. Seaver also explains why the company has chosen that slogan, “We were merely quoting in our ads Peter S. Prescott's review…” Grove Press Inc. was only quoting a review with no knowledge of Coca-Cola already owning the saying. This made Coke seem a bit unprofessional because it shows that they didn’t do too much research on why Grove Press Inc. chose that
Juice and soda have been around for a long time, however; during that time, two brands have weathered the societal storm of advancement and have stayed effective in their reiteration the nation over. Sunny juice and Crush soda are the two brands that I have chosen for my compare and contrast of the rhetorical strategies used inside their takes note. The chief advertisement we picked was from Sunny juice. This print advancement, which we found on the web, shows a container made out of 100% of vitamin C that have stayed in American culture since their hidden rising to reputation. Next, we have the Crush soda advertisement.
Herbert starts his letter with his claim to the slogan it 's the real thing and states that Seaver has no right to the slogan. Herbert then backs up his argument by saying that Coca-Cola has a history with the slogan and that therefore the slogan belongs to Coca-Cola. Seaver then replies to Herbert 's absurd claim with a very sarcastic tone. Seaver mentions in his letter how they have instructed all of their salesmen to notify bookstores that whenever a customer asks for a copy of Diary of a Harlem Schoolteacher that the salesman asks the customer to clarify and make sure that what they are asking for really is a book and not a six pack of Coca-Cola.
Seaver addresses the idea that the Coca-Cola Company came up with the ideal slogan of “the real thing” first. Seaver believes and also states in his letter to Herbert that if both companies use the slogan, then there will be confusion in the products, that will cause the customers to be misleading. Seaver complicates matters further when he describes the disadvantage of using the same slogan, which will eventually affect their merchandise. In other words, Seaver knows that if both companies keep using the same motto, customers would be confused in which product is advertised, and it can cause a downfall in their financial.
Dave Cullen spends much of the beginning of the book going in depth about the community, which of course includes the school but more importantly the people. Cullen describes the victims lifes and what was important to them. He humanises them so we can better have empathy, knowing they were people with good hearts and lives just like ours. As he tells us more about the victims it forces the audience to except that they were real people, not just names. In this way he appealed to the audience's sense of pathos, making the audience realize the depth of the massacre.
Aristotle’s proofs, ethos, logos and pathos can be found in campaign ads. In one of Hillary Clinton’s campaign messages called family strong, she is trying to convince the American people that kids and families are important to her in order to receive their votes on election day. Ethos relates to the credibility of the person to the following debate or argument. In the campaign message, Hillary Clinton uses her past positions in office to help spread her message that kids and families are important to her. Hillary Clinton could have became a lawyer at a big law firm but instead she decided to work in the Children’s Defense Fund.
No Means No “Are there any parties or places that you have been warned not to go to,” asked the interviewer. The girls replied “Yes, AE which is known as sexual assault expected.” Just like the girls explain to the interviewer, from the start of their college experience, most girls from around the states are told to stay away from certain fraternities because they mean harm. In the documentary The Hunting Ground, viewers learn how college around the states have been covering up rape cases on their campuses.
Things Are Different Now It is interesting to see that hilarious videos could pass on more information than expected. Although the people passing the message across seem to lack ethical appeal, it was really informative. The analysis of the three videos clearly reveals that ethos, logos and pathos were all used to pass the message across.
On July 20, 2016, Florida Senator Marco Rubio spoke to the Republican National Convention about democratic presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton. Being a former candidate for president himself, Rubio seems to understand what is being discussed. In his speech, Senator Rubio gives reasons as to why Mrs. Clinton is not fit to be the next President of the United States. “Hillary Clinton has spent her lifetime on the inside of a rigged political system that puts special interests ahead of the American people.” (Rubio 2016)
Americans aren't benefiting from United States Health Care? Michael Moore is the director of the film “SICKO”, where he talks about how the United States should adopt universal health care. Moore chooses to gets his point across by using pathos to get people to pay attention to what he's saying. He lastly uses ethos by providing examples of how people didn't like working for the U.S health care system because it was unethical. He uses logos to gives us facts about the U.S. health care system so we know its legit.
Gatorade was founded in the summer of 1965 when a University of Florida assistant coach sat down with a team of physicians to determine why so many players were being affected by the heat and its illnesses. Two key factors were determined by the group of researchers: the fluids and electrolytes lost were not being replaced, and the large amounts of carbohydrates used for energy were not being replenished. The researchers went to the lab and formulated a balanced carbohydrate – electrolyte drink that would replace the key factors the Gator players lost through practice and games. That is how the name ‘Gatorade’ came to be. This commercial has a strong ethos, pathos and logos with professional athletes and voice overs of ethos, music, visuals
Everyone has made an argument. It could be as little as argueing so you can to your friend’s house to as big as why you should be president. Whenever you make an argument you’re trying to persuade the person to listen to you. The points you make are ethos (appeals to credibility), logos (logic), or pathos (emotion). You do it without knowing.
The Mode the was used in my favorite commercial was logos and pathos. I choose those because this commercial states facts on the product, and something funny to draw your attention. The person who doesn't have it ends up being the funny part of the commercial. The part of the commercial that was funny was the Pathos part that included your emotions. The part of the commercial that stated the fact was the logos part because it was logical.

Advertising- Advertising is a paid method of promoting ideas, goods or services by companies and businesses. Advertisement involves the business to communicate a message to their target audience, who they are targeting their product or service to, therefore to encourage them to purchase the product or service. Coca- Cola uses advertisement to promote their products and they use many different forms of advertisements.
This aims at developing a deeper consumer desire for the brand, thus giving people more reason to purchase Coke- Cola products instead of competing brands. This is the essence of differentiation. Coca-Cola having an 'action orientation', instead of waiting for change to happen it is at the leading edge, driving action forward. This product differentiation strategy has created global value, brand loyalty, non-price competitor as well as no perceived
