Rhetoric, i.e: Inventio (Invention), (Dispositio) Disposition, Elocutioo

rhetoric analysis: Ethos, Pathos, Logos, Aim,and Mode. The result of this research shows that
based on the five canons of rhetoric as plato said, the most dominant news
about century case on Kompas, Replubika and Jawa Pos is Elocution (style),and
“Ethos” also used in the publication of centurygate.
