Jamieson sez that, since the advent of television, public discourse has become personal, self-disclosive, and autobiographical (44). Watch the 2004 vice-presidential debates between John Edwards and Richard Cheney (http://www.c-span.org/2004vote/debates.asp?Cat=Current_Event&Code=PresVP... [1]) Do you find that these two candidates employ the kind of rhetorical presentation that Jamieson attributes to television? Are they more inclined to a conversational style of speaking? Are they more inclined to disclose things about their personal lives? Are they less inclined to describe pictures and more inclined to references them as if the audience could see the picture easily? Use specific references to the debates to illustrate your case.
