While living nearly his entire life surrounded by those of similar upbringing, Tom has learned to be racist and proves it by even telling…
Since the beginning of American journalism, there has been a relationship between the reader and journalist of supply and demand. The reader wants scandalous or critical news and the journalist is happy to provide. In the 1960s, Clare Boothe Luce, in a speech made for the journalists in Women's National Press Club, criticizes the journalists for their seemingly mindless continuation of the supply and demand cycle. Luce challenges them to focus on the complete truth, rather than a fantastical half-truth. She prepares the audience for this message by beginning with a metaphor that emphasizes the importance of her message, using an ironic tone, not to be missed by the journalists, and by using ethos to remind the journalists what their responsibilities entail.…

In F.

For example, Daisy often emits “exaggerated” phrases when she doesn't know how to respond to something rather ordinary.…
