Jasmine Threatt- Blog Post 4- Persuasive Language Analysis

The pros and cons of Social Networking uses persuasive language in many different ways. For example, the use of percentages and research (which is highly persuasive in my opinion because there's nothing like the facts!). The pros and cons also use power of labeling because most of us younger people will either fall into the "heavy social media users" or the "non-heavy". This topic address safety issues, facts, law related issues, and much more. Each topic speaks to a concern in order to appeal to the message.

The readers comment's are obviously opinions, but strong opinions. They use ultimate terms and language intensity by using support phrases of facts like "anti-government protests were organized by anarchists with the help of twitter". Would you even trust Twitter if you knew that about it? The comments use just as much persuasive language.
