Rhetorical Situation

Tying all this to Digital Media is the point. Rhetorical itself means; for affect, not really for a answer. In some sense media and the digital world is a situation or place that was put in to place for affect not really for a answer. We as people do say and do rhetorical things to effect our environment or do be seen differently. A rhetorical question or situation should just cause you to think optimistically;  not to pull a answer from you. Some questions are left unanswered and well go on being unanswered. A rhetorical situation is a situation you are placed in or are found in merely for the effect not for a answer. Many times we are put into rhetorical situation just to see how we respond, not for a answer or end result. Rhetorical questions or situations are there more to teach us than they are there for us to answer or solve.

  1. you offer some excellent insight concerning rhetoric within a rhetorical situation...that we are not actually offering an answer. So what are we offering? Can you give me an example?
