outline for journal 6

I started working on the outline for my rhetorical analysis and so far I have the first couple of paragraphs, which are going to include the introduction, audience, credibility, organization styles, and purpose. In the next paragraphs I am going to talk about the language usage, and rhetorical efficiency. I may also include tone and evidence/methodology. I think the outline really helps me out because it is pretty much an overview of what I am going to include in my rhetorical analysis. I just have to include a more in depth description and provide some examples to support what I am saying. I think that the analysis is pretty easy to write when I use the compare and contrast method. It is easier to compare one thing to another than to just try and describe one article.
