Emotional Appeal


Oftentimes, persuasion appeals to people's emotions, especially anger and sadness.  Sometimes commercials or advertisements make people laugh.  This is emotional appeal.  Write two examples of emotional appeal that you have seen.  Also, write about a time where you have used emotional appeal to persuade someone to buy or do something for you.  Remember to use correct grammar and punctuation!

    One example is a humane society commercial and it shows dogs that have been mistreated and that commerical makes me very sad.
    Another commercial is the hefty commerical. It makes you laugh hard and that is my two examples!!!!!

  4. One time well you could say all the time i fake cry and act like I am hurt and then I tell me sister that i am and then she does anything for me. A commercial I have seen that makes you sad is when they show animals that are hurt. Another time is that hefty commercial it make me go crazy.

    I have seen emotinal appeal on a commerical about a little boy who has to take care of his little brothers and sisters alone with no food or money and no parents. I have also seen emotional appeal when a commerical comes on about puppies and cats. I have used emotional appeal when I was at the water park. My dad would not donate to the carity and it said it would all be donated to the homeless people and kids so I told him how important it would be.

  8. Austin,
    One time I saw emotional appeal is on that sad comercial with the animals that are homeless and are abused. That brings the emotion sadness. Another place where I have seen kids in forein country's where they are starving and homeless because they don't have the money to have food or shelter. That brings sadness also. One time I used emotinal appeal in my life.
