The first draft for my rhetorical critique was actually pretty adequate as far as establishing a valid argument in response to Sontag's article. The draft presented some good arguments that had solid and direct ties to arguing appeals to ethos, pathos, and logos. Professor Brown's comments mainly focused on some discrepancies that involved clarity in word choice and elaborations with some points of reference. There was also an issue that involved misinterpreting Sontag's text. Nonetheless, these mistakes didn't hinder my direction in critiquing the text.
My majority of my final draft consisted of the main points and organization from my first draft and I focused primarily on adjusting some sentence structure and content to allow it to be read more comprehensively. Overall there wasn't too much to change, at least in my opinion, other these minor details. I feel that my intial attempt to critique the text I choose was a competent enough presentation that only required minor changes and, overall, I proposed a solid argument against Sontag's rhetoric.
