What grabs me?
As I was browsing the web looking for a good editorial article I found that I could not find one that I was interested in. This is because most were about politics, and I'm not into politics at all. I tried to search for things that did interest me but the articles I did find were years old. The way an article grabs my attention is definitely what it is about and also how the article presents itself. I mean this by how does the article relate to me and how much do I know to make my own opinion on it. I would say that the rhetorical strategy that works the most on me is logos. I like to use logic a lot in my life, so when I see news articles that use logic and stats a lot I like to read that article. One rhetorical strategy that doesn't really effect me is ethos. I am not into news and politics enough to care about who wrote the article or what company he/she works for. I just read things that interest me.
