Reaction to Murder! Rhetorically Speaking

While reading Murder! Rhetorically Speaking it was a lot simpler to understand than the other reading.  I like how it broke each of the sections down and gave example writings for them all.  This piece of writing was way more clear that the comic one when it came down to explaining the vocabulary such as diction, jargon, and colloquial.  It was also easier for me to take these scenarios and think how it would be for photographers. For example, giving a lot of detailed information like the detectives to clients about plans for upcoming shoots.  Also the writings form the coroners were also similar to the way photographers would to talk to assistants.  There are a lot of details but also technical words for the equipment and terms that if you are not a photographer you may not understand.  The saying goodbye and the lawyer sections I didn’t think really connected with photography.  There may be times that we can have a tone of a lawyer to promote our ideas and works but we aren’t proving many points and convincing others.  The saying goodbye part doesn’t connect with photography at all.  That section was more of a personal life connection of how we can talk to friends and family.  It made me realize how many ways people communicate with others based on the relationship or profession.  And most of the time we don’t even realize how we change the way we communicate and sometimes we do make that conscious decision to sound more professional in certain situations.  But the only problem I had with this text was how long it was.  If I am not interested in what I am reading I tend to zone out after awhile.
