International Intentions (Continued)

To complement my previously published blog post,

the Kalamazoo Gazette initiates more rhetorical

strategies that influence its audience members.

For example, one of the underlying subtitles reads

“U.S. troops brush off Iraqi volley” as if to say

“we are too powerful for your nonsense Iraq!”

Not only does this insensitive, subjective approach

to publish content uniquely generate a sense of

patriotism in audience members, but it further

embellishes on the idea that Iraq is the enemy

and all true Americans must hate them for what

they did. Although insensitive, this method is

ingenious, for it presented its content in a

memorable, creative way that influenced public

opinion [1 image, 1 link, 1 quotation, 108 words].
