Today we will be talking about an article by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar "We Should Let Some NBA Players Jump the Vaccine Queue". We will be analyzing this article for Rhetorical analysis. In this article Kareem explains why NBA players should wait to get the vaccine for Covid- 19. should NBA players jump ahead in the line to get the Vaccine? Kareem tries to explain that the NBA is trying to have a complete season. Not only in this podcast will we look at if these NBA players deserve to jump ahead of people but will put facts and percentages. I will attempt to evaluate the author's tone and his target audience. We can look to see If this story is biased. Was the author able to prove his points? is there any evidence on why the NBA player should jump ahead to get the vaccine. Then we will attempt to see if the author gives us examples or even tries to appeal to us. In the end, we will be reviewing these things on my podcast and I will state my personal opinion about this article. After you take a few minutes to listen give me your opinion.
