Saying Vs. Negotiating
If I was to try to get my point across to my audience
by negotiating I would have to delicately prepare my plan of attack. I would
first get them engaged into the subject with stases slowly easing them into the
conversation by giving them the information needed to know and to progress the
audience through the information I was to give them. I would convey the
exigence in a way that would make them want to fix that issue at hand. They would
feel as if their one goal in life was to back my argument.
Getting your point across to your reader isn't always just telling them information. depending on your message you must use
different techniques to display your information. As a writer you must understand how to get
your point across to the reader. You can take two approaches to conveying your
message. You can tell the reader by just relaying your message unbiased and
factual, or you can rhetorically negotiate your message by persuading the
reader. In example, when talking about animal cruelty you could tell the reader
straight facts and leave it at that or go the extra mile like Sarah McLachlan. Sarah
McLachlan uses videos (like this one here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gspElv1yvc) of beaten and starved dogs to get her point across. As you
can tell Sarah wasn't just letting the dogs be a distant idea she brought them
up close and personal for the audience convincing them. For if she would have
been less convincing she may not have gotten her point across as well and when
making her points she wouldn't have been able to convince as many people to
join her cause.
