I was recently visiting the state of Ohio's Web site and noticed a chart that related to state government, which we've been discussing for the last few days. (Since then, the graphic has been removed from the state Web site and added to an "elect Collier" site. This image is currently hosted there.)
For this blog entry, I'd like you to consider how this particular chart works to convey information. Think about layout, color schemes, etc. as you analyze the different parts that contribute to the impact of the whole.
Finally, is this chart more than just a means to convey information? How is it rhetorical? You'll remember from our writing classes that rhetoric is the art of persuasion.
If you click on the picture, you can get a better image of it.
