And she went into the house and while spending time with her granddad. She started regretting going up there and wanting to do it. But her friend Bernadette Burns encouraged her to go through with it and she did. And after all was done. Instead of leaving she washed the dishes while her grandfather was bleeding to death. And instead of getting the money they came for they only ended up with $1,000 and a few other things. The granddaughter claimed was that the murder was inspired by the show 'American Horror Story'. And the Burns family wants to claimed that Bernadette didn't really know what she was doing cause she had a methamphetamine addition. The author used regular everyday diction. The diction used didn't make it seem like the author had any emotional attachment. I noticed that the author appeals to pathos. The author appeals to pathos when the author inserted a quote from the granddaughters brother. When the brother stated that she should receive the maximum penalty for her consequences. And that the shame and grief they have casted upon both their families is unforgiveable. the tone that is set in this article is a sad tone. You can tell by the words she uses like grieving, unforgiveable, shame, sorrow, etc. The overall goal of writing this article to tell about this horrifying story of how wicked people in this world can really be over greed. The article is organized by first stating the basis information. Then it goes on to tell about how the crime happened and took place. Then it finally tells what happening now or what is happen in future.

They use formal diction because since many people read news, so by using formal dictions it helps to show that they know what they are talking about. But tone the .The purpose of this article is to talk about what's happening so far with the banning of transgender in workplace. And how it's actually extending to schools too they are advising to no longer let students use the bathroom of their choice. I feel like the topic is absolutely stupid. Like does it really matter what transgender want to do with their life. But anyway, the way the authors write the article makes it seem like they have no emotional attachment to this issue. It was as if they just didn't care it was like they were just writing it cause they were told to. Pathos was used in the article because this used an emotional because this is discrimination towards the LGBTQ community. While this is just mainly about transgender doesn't mean that everyone else won't be affected by it. the author organizes the article by introducing the main topic, then they talk about the what's happening about the topic, and what the government is going to do about it. I personally do not support this topic. I don't support this topic because I personally have no problem with anyone in the LGBTQ community. Because I feel that if they have not cause harm or damage to me then why cause it upon someone who hasn't done anything. One adjective I would use to describe this article is cruel. I choose that word because how they are treating people who are different is unbelievable. All because someone is different doesn't mean they are something you should fear or even criticize. |
