Find a recent example of a visual argument, either in print or on the internet. Even though you may have a copy of the image, describe it carefully in your paper on the assumption that your description is all readers may have to go on. Then make a judgment about its effectiveness, supporting your claim with clear evidence from the “text.”

In your discussion of the visual argument, do your best to follow the examples provided in the middle pages of Chapter 6. Keep in mind that you will need to explain what argument/position the visual “text” is putting forward, and then analyze how and why it is or is not succeeding in convincing the audience of that position. Aim for roughly 500 words, or 2 pages, for this assignment
