Watching for Ethos
Comments made by experts that was proven very wrong:
“ The horse is here to stay, but the automobile is only a novelty.” The president of a Michigan bank, advising the lawyer of Henry Ford not to invest in the Ford Motor Car Company.
“Forget it Louis, no Civil War picture ever made a dime.”
MGM production executive Irving Thalberg talking about “Gone
with the Wind “ with studio chief Louis B. Mayer in 1936.

Source of Credibility Initial Ethos- is based on the
arguer’s credentials, status, and reputation known to the audience before they hear or read the content of the message.
Derived ethos- results from what is said in the message
