COME 329 (Political Communication): Application Paper

This piece was written during my sophomore year in the fall of 2019. I was instructed to choose a concept or theory mentioned in the course and apply it to a political text or phenomenon. I decided to write about associational juxtaposition in the 2016 election advertisements, specifically those approved and endorsed by Hillary Clinton. This paper satisfies learning objective three, because I was able to find meaning in her messages, recognize the influence it had or could have had in the election, and mindfully respond to the messages. the target audience was the professor.
