    Melodramas and television shows have long been a cornerstone of popular culture, offering emotional and viewing pleasure to a wide variety of audiences. Elisabeth Anker, a noted political scientist, takes this one step further, arguing that this mode of media serves more than the simple purpose of trivial entertainment. Instead, she believes that melodrama indoctrinates the audience with a positive view of the state and its policies. In her Orgies of Feeling she asserts that in American media the government is often portrayed as a moral and robust hero, which in turn results in the legitimation of the state and its actions. While Anker’s argument retains credibility when applied to melodramatic stories, it is hardly able to stand when applied to animated sitcoms and other humorous shows.

    Bad guys can be great leaders, Osama Bin Laden is proof of that, but being a great leader doesn't necessarily mean that people are going to be considered as "great." Bin Laden and Hitler were both incredibly great leaders, but neither of them are looked at as great. Alexander was looked at as great both during and after his time, while a small few saw Hitler and Bin Laden as great, they are looked back on as evil to the point where people almost dehumanize them.

I think the way in which we are dehumanizing these very similar people says something about the way people see thing today vs. how they did then.

English Language and Composition President Obama Speech Analysis     On the morning of September 11th, terrorists hijacked 4 planes, 2 of which were crashed into the World Trade Center Buildings, another hit the Pentagon, and one was crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. This tragic morning in American history caused the death of almost 3000 people, and the leader of Al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden, was behind it. After planning a mission for around 4 years to execute Osama bin Laden, on May 2, 2011, he was killed by US special forces. President Obama follows this event with a speech, its goal being to inform the American people of the death of the man who had caused the death of so many loved ones, and achieves this by using rhetorical devices such as parallel structure and appeals to emotion.     In the beginning of President Obama’s speech announcing the death of Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, he reminds the American people of the tragic events that took place on the morning of 9/11, when “nearly 3,000 citizens were taken from us.”
