Bennett had been invited to speak on the issue by an organization of business leaders called Chicago United. In the meeting Bennett was quoted saying “if it’s (CPS) not the last, I don’t know who is.

because it comes from Detroit, where the “hottest fires make the hardest steel.” They know how to make a good car because they are “capable” of it. These logical claims are backed by fallacies. There is a fault use of authority. Eminem is a famous rapper. He is not an authoritative figure in the realm of automobiles. The predominant message of this advertisement is that Detroit, along with New York and Chicago, is one of America’s greatest cities and is in the process of rebirth. It encourages…
