  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

Jimmy stares right at camera - intense, smoldering, searching. JIMMY Hah! There you are, you little bastard. REVEAL that he’s looking in the mirror of a men’s room. He finds and plucks a grey hair from the middle of his head. He checks himself out again and smiles: perfect. He walks out.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: September 20, 2016 Spencer Alcorn 310.360.1981 [email protected] Sundance Institute Unveils Latest Episodic Story Lab Fellows 11 New Television Pilots Selected from 2,000 Submissions Projects Include Tudor-Era Family Comedy, Mysterious Antarctic Anomaly, Animated Greek Gods and More Rafael Agustin, Nilanjana Bose, Jakub Ciupinski, Mike Flynn, Eboni Freeman, Hilary Helding, Donald Joh; John McClain, Colin McLaughlin, Jeremy Nielsen, Connie O’Donahue, Calvin Lee Reeder, Marlena Rodriguez.

  • A Topical Approach to Argument
    A TOPICAL APPROACH TO ARGUMENT: AN UN-ENLIGHTENED PARADIGM OF RHETORICAL INVENTION by THOMAS WILLIAM DUKE BETH S. BENNETT, COMMITTEE CHAIR ROBERT N. GAINES JASON EDWARD BLACK ALEXA S. CHILCUTT LUCAS P. NIILER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Communication and Information Science in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2018 Copyright Thomas William Duke 2018 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT In contemporary society, expertise is often a liability for those seeking to persuade the public. This work argues that the contemporary rejection of expertise is caused by a lack of proper rhetorical training, that the lack of rhetorical training is in turn an effect of rhetorical pedagogies rooted in Enlightenment values, and finally that rhetoricians must return to a pre- Enlightenment pedagogy if expertise is ever to obtain the recognition it deserves. Contemporary rhetorical training in argument is examined through a discussion of the argument systems of Stephen Toulmin, Chaïm Perelman, and Aristotle. The important aspects of these argument systems, the Toulmin model of argument, Perelman’s universal audience, and the Aristotelian enthymeme, are reviewed and critiqued. In the latter portion of the work, the study describes a distinctly rhetorical method for inventing arguments and discusses its implications for the problem of popularizing expertise. ii DEDICATION I prepared this work for my own edification and understanding of the questions to which I hope it provides some answers. I hope that others may find some value in this rather public attempt to write my way to clarity.
