A cookie is just a cookie

but a Newton is fruit and cake.

We have extra credit here, folks.

Take a look at this satirical essay from The Onion, everyone’s most trusted news source. In a 500 word essay, comment on a current commercial or ad campaign. Feel free to be as ironic as you like, but you must use the rhetorical language we discussed in the previous advertising unit. Include a copy of the ad in your essay and post your questions below.

This will be worth 20 points. That is two quizzes, two-thirds of an essay. Write well and your grade will thank you.

This will be due a week from today, no exceptions (even if you’re absent).

   Morgan,
   Is it ok if the essay is 501 words and we only used 3 of the words on that Persuasion in Advertising sheet that you gave us for the advertising unit that we did a few weeks ago.
