Fast Food Rhetorical Analysis
Most people are visual and many organizations use graphics in advertisement or communication to relay information with the public. However, just like a fast food advertisement showcasing a delectable burger stacked with perfect vegetables and mouthwatering (animal of your choice) is not ‘exactly’ what you get, but a representation of the included ingredients. Not only is this one way honesty and integrity is misrepresented, but the same is done with graphs in the media, especially concerning political parties and the supposed media’s affiliation when comparing their favored with the opposing party.

    Have you ever seen a Coca-Cola ad and immediately had a strong desire to drink one? The Coca-Cola Company has been very strong in the advertisement department over the years and has made many sales on impulse alone. The most recent one being the "Share a Coke, which emphasizes that people should not only buy one, but purchase another to share with someone else. While this one is strong, one in particular that always makes me think to buy an ice cold Coca-Cola is when Winter comes around and they start using Santa Claus to advertise. It is really memorable for me since as a child I would always see Santa on a billboard or side of a bottle and think to myself, "Wow, even Santa Claus likes Coke!" The strongest version of this ad in recent times…

    Coca-Cola Executive Ira Herbert sent out a letter to Richard Seaver urging Grove Press Inc. to immediately end their use of the slogan "It's the real thing," which Coca-cola claimed rightfully belonged to them. Seaver responded to the letter by stating the company recognized Coca-Cola's reasons as to why they should stop the use of the slogan; however, Seaver employs satire/irony, allusions and a condescending tone to assert the fact that Grove Press Inc. will not render their privilege to use the phrase, "It's the real thing."…

    Towards the third section of Herbert’s letter, he argues how the Coca-Cola company was the first to create the slogan and advertised by them since the beginning. In order to illustrate the sense of ownership Herbert applies at various of dates,“…first used in 1942...1954...summer of 1960 and it is our main thrust for 1970,” (lines 16-17). Utilizing the tone of condescension in the third section, Herbert’s tactic is to dismay ownership and rightful power to the slogan by emphasising the dates and seniority Coca-Cola has. Herbert’s stern and whiny tone of Coca-Cola being the first ones to have used the slogan does not necessarily provide a persuasive argument, unlike Richard Seaver. Seaver instead of just complaining uses a more sympathizing…

    Already has the significance of Eric Schlosser’s “Fast Food Nation” been discussed, but one crucial aspect of this novel has not yet been explored- and that is what rhetorical devices were used. Rhetorical devices are often times used subtlety throughout the entirety of the novel, which helps move the purpose of the work along whilst keeping the reader indulged.

    A pregnant mother walks into frame and is placing sharp pins into an infant’s changing pad, as the scene changes she sharpens knives to hang from the infants mobile. The scene changes a few more times showing the mothers actions such as pouring poison into a baby bottle, inserting a child’s fork into an electrical socket, and laying a snake in the infant’s stroller. The scene changes one more time, the mother is sitting on a couch caringly stroking her stomach as she brings a cigarette to her mouth and then sits an ash tray on top of her stomach. This advertisement leaves viewers with the phrase “A mother can be her baby’s worst enemy” and the words of the Cancer Society of Finland explaining that ten thousand babies are at risk because of smoking during pregnancy as well to encourage mothers to quit smoking. This advertisement is trying to convey the dangers of smoking with showing “equivalences” of the same dangers of other hazards. Using a rhetorical analysis of this advertisement will create a further understanding of the argument that is being presented, the application of the canons of rhetoric, and its appeals regarding ethos, pathos, logos, and kairos.…
