All Lies and False Propaganda


This week we'll begin reading a key text for this course, for our new unit specifically on rhetoric and political debate. It's a non-fiction, non-literary text - something like an erudite and quirky textbook - so you'll need to focus on new vocabulary and make lots of connections. Embed video, photos, whatever you need to make it click.

Complete Chapter 2 and write one blog entry by Friday. Read Chapter 4 and write a blog entry this weekend. Be sure to respond to a few other blogs as well. Look at how other people are going about it. Discuss the text.

By the way, the allusion in the title is a quotation from Rocky in Rocky III.
