In Drunk History – Claudette Colvin and Rosa Parks provided by Comedy Central the public speaker, whose name is using the form of public speaking form of Ethos. Her reference to Claudette Colvin is very accurate.

Bleh, locking down a clear understanding of ethos, pathos, and logos took a significant amount of time and research. Being able to apply this concept to a paper I found to be even more difficult especially in clarifying ethos and logos. In my mind, I over simplified the two concepts to ethos equaling credibility and logos to mean the accuracy of the information, but in my research, this was not always the case.
