"The Rap Against Rockism" by Kelefa Sanneh
Central Claim: "The problem with rockism is that it seems increasingly far removed from the way most people actually listen to music." (pg. 355)
My Central Claim: "The author presents his argument with strong examples and opinions, but fails to make a solid and convincing argument." (pg. 1)
My Revised Claim: "Senneh's use of strong opinions, and lack of solid facts, decreases the effectiveness of his article."
My Conclusion: "...Senneh does not follow through on his strong examples and opinions with sufficient supporting detail." (pg. 3)

You have an evident central claim of your own and critique the author and writing thouroughly. The credibility of the author is thouroughly analyzed and you question the author as opposed to just accepting what he has to say. Pathos is at one point addressed as well. Outside of that however, it seems as though you may be more critiquing the authors statements as opposed to the rhetorical analysis
