My
research paper is about the corruption of FIFA, which is if you have not been
informed the world governing body of FIFA. I am not going to try to emulate my
paper around an article, but rather a video. In fact this video is the thing
that actually brought my attention to the problems that FIFA has and as a
result the entire world even the United States. It is a video on John Oliver’s
Show: Last Week Tonight
that is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend that you take fifteen minutes
to watch it. Also if you have another fifteen minutes I recommend you watch the
follow up video, which
in my personal opinion is even funnier than the first. I do know that FIFA is
an organization that many people do not actually care about in the United
States and to be honest have probably not even heard of. I’m hoping to get my
readers interested in the organization in the same way that Oliver does. He
makes his viewers realize just how important the sport is and also constantly
relates it back to things in the United States that are more relatable to us
like football. While these are all very important tools that he uses his most
important and most utilized tool is humor. Oliver is constantly making jokes to
help get his point across and uses it very effectively. He mocks the thing that
he is opposes to the point that it is absolutely ridiculous in his viewers mind
just something that makes you wonder, “How is this even something that exists?”
I know that I am not as funny as Oliver and that bringing it to the level that
he does is likely out of my reach, but I can still do my best to engage the
reader using humor. It is likely that I will end up using pathos like Oliver
does at certain points in his article more often than I do humor because with
FIFA there is no shortage of that. The story on FIFA still has not ended and it
gives me plenty to write about in my article.
