Document Summary
This specific nra news broadcast attempted to appear as more intelligent than its organization in question. It tries to have credibility and seem ethical by giving the broadcast the face of a refined news anchor. At the same time, this refined video was full of anger, blaring white letters, and harsh sound effects as a means of pathos. These choices were made for a specific reason and purpose: to demonize the democratic party and left wing officials that oppose current gun laws and religion superiority. Using the term godless left to describe liberals is quite the outrageous statement. There are positive aspects of valuing varying religions and controlling gun usage that are completely disregarded in this broadcast. This causes the video to lose credibility since arguments from both sides are blatantly misrepresented. Along with this, the logos of this broadcast has reasoning which harms the credibility as well. The entire video"s argument was based around using sound bites.
