Ugly, the American

The piece I decided to do my literary analysis on was "Ugly, the American," by James Poniewozik

I. Logos- The deduction method is used here- Author has the idea that people like Betty, and then deduces why "It is easier to hate a straw man- or a straw mexican- than a person"
II. Ethos- The author is a Media and television critic by profession
III. Pathos- This piece was written to show that everyone doesn't hate immigrants themselves, and that a lot of people hate the idea of immigrants more than the immigrants themselves

The piece that I read and decided not to analyze was "Eat This Now!" by Susan Brink and Elizabeth Querna

I decided it was not the most fitting piece mainly because I personally disagree with many of the key points, as well as the fact that multiple authors, without information on either of them would not make the author segments easy to establish.
