The article that I analyzed was "LOOK@ME: Generation Next Is Living Out Loud and Online" by Melissa Ludwig
Cenrtal Claim :
"Bad or good, Generation Next is living out loud and doing it online, before a global audience, in a medium where digital archives may linger for a long, long time." (66)
My Central Claim :
"The increasing availability of, and accessibility to, information on the Internet is beginning to cause more harm than good." (1)
My Revised Claim :
"The author of this article uses a claim of cause in this argument where she talks about the current issue of narcissism in today's young people and that it was developed because of the new technology in today's society, especially the Internet."
My Conclusion :
"There are too many different ways for people to access information that they do not need and maybe should not have." (Topic Sentence)

A good summary of Ludwigs essay, I feel like I know most of what tehre is to know about it without even reading it. On the other hand, I'm not sure as to how much rhetorical analysis is involved. You summarize the entire article, but at no point do you mention the type of claim it is. I recommend that you go back and pick one of the analysis styles (TRACE, or Logos, Ethos, and Pathos) and write your paper to answer the questions posed through those methods. Support from the paper is important, but it shouldn't be the entire paper. Like I said, a good summary of the article, I'm not sure how good of a rhetorical analysis though. It shouldn't be too tough to fix it though.
