The use of ethos in this commercial is not as evident as one would think. The credibility is brought to this advertisement in a surprising way, through the powerful brand name of Coca-Cola. This company has been around since 1886 and was founded by a pharmacist named Dr. John S. Pemberton. The fact that the Coca-Cola Company are the ones that produced it is the reason why this commercial has a strong sense of ethos. This is because this company is associated with “being the best...providing the best,” and spreading “happiness throughout the world,” (The History of Coca-Cola paragraph 7).

This video is pulling at the heartstrings of people everywhere. Let us look at the world differently; let us see all the wonderful and beautiful things around us are the main point of this ad. This offers a new and a beautiful way of seeing the world. A world that is often associated with such negativity. The fact that this is the message is the reason why this advertisement is so effective to the viewing audience. People need reassurance that not everything is not as bad as the news makes it out to be, and this commercial does just that. Although a person may never actually buy a bottle of Coke product, the fact that the ad was able to stick to them is
