Rhetorical Analysis
This is my response to Brian Doucet and Philp`s “In Detroit ‘ruin porn’ ignores the voices of those who still call the city home and recommendation for publication in the Shorthorn.

Also of how 10% of the population of Detroit are at risk of losing their homes this year. The authors are trying to make you feel bad for the city but in the attempt to do so they don’t give enough detail to make the reader do something about the problem with the ruin porn in
