According to the journalists featured on the TIME\u2019s 2013 list of the best Twitter feeds, various media personalities stood out from their twits due to humor, knowledge as well as their character. One of the twits which stood out is that of Kevin Rose <\/p>\n
\u2018Hello! For the next few months, I’ll be covering a big and (I think) critical story: social media and the 2018 midterms. Get in touch (email in bio, DM for Signal) if you: <\/p>\n
\u2022 work on a campaign digital team<\/p>\n
\u2022 research social disinformation <\/p>\n
\u2022 see something sketchy on your feeds\u2019<\/p>\n
Various tricks are used by the media to attract my attention from the message Kevin Rose message. The first trick to attract attention from the reader is through the use of a shouting greetings Hello! The word hello has not only been used to greet the reader but also make sure he or her attention has been caught through the use of an exclamation mark. Another trick that has been used to catch the reader\u2019s attention is the use of suspense in the phrase \u201cfor the next few months\u2019. The phrase is made in such a way that the reader would like to know what is coming next and therefore an aspect of suspense is created in the reader’s mind. Besides, Kevin Rose has used points to separate the message and therefore the content is not squeezed but rather evenly distributed making the reader have an easy time to pick the main content of the message. Besides the formatting of the message, the whole message has been kept small and simple to understand. The use of fewer and meaningful words makes it easier to read and as well as understand the content. <\/p>\n
Despite the skillful use of the words in the context of the message, a majority of the people might understand the message differently from me. There are as well factors that may seem unattractive to other people despite being appealing on my side. Some individuals may deem the use of the exclamation marks as being commanding rather than welcoming to read the post. The incomplete messages may also deter people from making the full understanding of the message but rather remain hanging. Furthermore, the individuals who have not been following Kevin Rose and read his previous twits may not be able to understand what exactly he is talking about and thereby may end up obtaining and interpreting the message differently from me.<\/p>\n
Despite the message being attractive, the lack of certainty from the twit has been omitted. , on the other hand, has been used to owe the people read the message. The author of the message Cleary outlines the criteria of the individuals who have to get in touch with him in his inbox and therefore have made it easy to choose a lot of people targeted by the message. In addition to the criteria, not all individuals have been asked to get in touch, and therefore they have wasted their precious time reading the message to which I can consider being an omission. <\/p>\n
In conclusion, the reason as to why the message was sent is to inform the prospective followers of an upcoming event. The awareness is done to prepare the readers to expect something the in the days to come and therefore it would not be a surprise to them. Another issue as to why the message was sent was so that the author of the message could achieve publicity and make his event or product more popular by having more subscribers. <\/p>\n
