In the text that I have chosen called Fake news the author is arguing that some news outlets produced today either digitally or on paper posses what is called fake news. the authors uses mostly logos or the appeal to logic to get their point across. in the introduction the author immediately reference a source that states that today millennial's can not distinguish between real and fake or deceiving news articles. The author explains what fake news is and how the catch phrase fake news became so popular in the past two years following the 2016 presidential election The author then begins to list specific websites whose goal is to primarily create and spread fake news. The author then explains how fake news is having a negative impact on society by sharing a story of a professor who had student citing website that were not legit. the amount of sources and information given in the text provides a strong logical argument and the logos appeal is very effective. To me appealing to logic is the best way to persuade a person of your stand point.
