Thought the class might enjoy this. Hope it is a happy Christmas / holiday season.
Easy question...
Do you like this? If yes, why?, If not, why not?
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you...
I thought this might somehow be appropriate after all of our discussions on animal rights.
And yes, I guess I really am that twisted.

In a fun class today we watched this short clip. I guess I am hoping that you as a class will help me interpret the changes. In class we have discussed the concepts of "Method, Medium, and Message" and how they interact with "Ethos, Pathos, and Logos".
So, how do the changes in medium and method effect the ethos, pathos, and logos here? and ultimately what is the new message that it sends?
"Eww...I knew the media distorted and altered pictures, but I guess I never thought about how much they change the neck and eyes".
"Power of technology, why not take advantage? Those that don't want to be unhealthy won't do these types of things...others will just die a few years earlier".
Question #1: Do you think that physical appearance is or will be the basis for discrimination? Is this the new racism?
"This makes me wonder how they would change my picture?"
Question #2: How do you think they would change your picture? Exactly who is they? and ultimately why are "they" changing it?

"In Iwo Jima there will be servings for everybody".
"This to me symbolizes how we might go to war to free people and stop terrorism, but by doing this, it allows companies like McDonalds to rush in and take over".
"The place is designed for kids...goofy characters scattered around the dining room, a playground...the first to come out with a happy meal, which is brilliant".
"Don't get me wrong...I love Mickey D's. I just don't eat there or any fast food restaurant every night ...I might if I weren't poor though".
"I've passed the happy meal stage in my life. I find McDonalds gross and greedy".
Okay...here is the challenge: it requires two entries one in support of Mickey D's and one against it...
Give me 3 words that describe McDonalds, no more no less.
