She has written multiple article within the 25 years she has been an publisher for The Daily Mail, Slate, Foreign Policy Magazine, New Zealand Herald, Roads and Kingdoms, etc. Emily lives in Sydney, Australia and likes to write about foreign politics, mostly about our current President Donald Trump. ABOUT THE ARTICLE The purpose of this article that Emily has written, is to show and address the increasing problem between Trump and the NFL Organization has grown to smaller places in the United States. Emily uses quotes from primary resources and background information about why and how the story happened so the intended audience understands the all of it. The audience being Americans, especially those who like football and politics or both.
During the article Emily's article her didactic tone can be seen throughout. Her didactic tone is seen when she writes things like, "Cedric Ingram-Lewis and his cousin Larry McCullough, who play for Two Victory and Praise Christian Academy in Crosby.." or even "It comes after more than 200 NFL players and coaches have taken a knee during the national anthem over the past two weeks." Both educate and instruct the reader why what happened had happened and who was involved. Along with didactic tone Emily also shows formal diction. She shows this by writing, "...the Houston Chronicle reports.", which gives what Emily says some credit. Credit can also be seen with the quotes she adds of the men involved with in the article and " 'He told us that disrespect will not be tolerated,' Ingram-Lewis said.", " 'That was my point of view,' Mitchem said.". The appeal of not only ethos but pathos as well is evident. Ethos can be seen with the quotes from Ronnie Mitchem, the coach, and Cedric Ingram-Lewis, one of the players, with the claims that the Houston Chronicle reported by giving them credit along with Emily Crane. The pathos can be seen when Crane including this statement, "[Ronnie Mitchem] added that he supported players protesting- just not during the national anthem. Mitchem said he told them they could kneel after a touchdown in the end zone or hand out flyers." This whole article is based on two boys from Ronnie's team doing what they believed in after being told how their coach felt about the situation and what might happen if they did it, yet they still did what they believed in as well as the Mitchem
