Although both positions have a lot of merit and make a lot of sense, I would have supported the Federalists. I believe that this would have been likely, as their ideals match my own more closely. The Federalists believed that a strong federal government is preferable to strong state governments. I believe this to be the case, as a strong federal government is more likely to be able to ensure equal rights and protections across state lines. Moreover, a federal Constitution has the power to control the excesses and abuses of the federal government. Finally, I believe that new, modern industries were the future of the country, as opposed to farming.
First of all ‘News’ is not objective and impartial, it is a socially manufactured product because it is the result of a selective process (
McQuail- 1992)
Editors, journalists, and sometimes owners (gatekeepers) make choices and judgements about what events are important enough to cover and how to cover them.
News selection is bias because it depends on the following-
Routines
: Newspapers and TV coverage is shaped by the routines and organisation of the companies themselves. The collection of news itself as well as its presentation might then be bias before it is even reported. Finally the story must be percieved as newsworthy.
Answer:
D). Increased sectional divisions between the north and south.
Explanation:
As per the question, one of the most significant impacts of rhetoric similar to here is the 'increased sectional divisions between the north and south' as it convinces people through using an effective and persuasive language. In the given excerpt, <u>the language adopted by the speaker invokes the audience to believe that 'it is a great and dangerous error to suppose that all people are equally entitled to liberty.'</u>
The claim is logically supplemented by various rhetoric tools(in the language) that convinced the people that 'liberty is a reward to be earned, not a blessing to be gratuitously lavished... people too ignorant, degraded and vicious to be capable either of appreciating or of enjoying it.' Thus, the language like this contributed to encourage the widening of the rift between the north and south. Therefore, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
