Speaker: Dana Perino's articles revolve around humanness. She is not afraid to be open with the public and share her feelings and thoughts with them. She chooses every day topics which are easy and simple to comprehend.
Occasion: The career world today is for both men and women, but it is often unfair to both. Men are trying to do typical women's jobs (stay-at-home dads) and women have taken on many of the traditionally male jobs. Everyone feels inadequate at some point. Perino's article, "Lean In," is meant to be a confidence builder to any women feeling a little low at the moment.
Audience: Perino's audience is everyone, but specifically women. This topic addresses the short lived fear that women may feel on a given day in the workplace.
Purpose:Dana Perino likes to write about things that the average Joe can relate to every day. She feels comfortable with herself and her audiences enough to share hard times with them and moments when she worried about her capabilities in her field of journalism. She believed this experience and the words of wisdom she received from former press secretary Tony Snow and Margret Spellings was helpful and could be meaningful to others.
Subject: Perino shares with her audience one of the most major turning points of her career, when she had to take the position of a well respected White House Press secretary because his health had demanded he take retirement. The topic of this article for Perino is not believeable. She is the press Secretary to the president. She obviously didn't get there without hard work, capability and guts. The article highlights a time when she felt insecure and the advice she received was poor and without depth.
Tone: Perino's tone is both reflective and earnest. She really believes that the advice she received from her friends were pivotal and would be uplifting to women. Perino always tries to share her innermost thoughts and emotions with her audiences. She is a simple writer, but always sincere in her delivery of information and advice of her own.
Audience: Perino is writing to anyone who has ever felt insecure about venturing into something new. Her sentiments are natural as all of us at one time or another have to follow behind someone and don't feel that we measure up. This article "Lean In" addresses women specifically. I doubt if a man would finish reading this article because it is opposite of the way men deal with transition. I think they generally just make a decision, feel good about it and move on. Women analyze everything and really rely on feelings to express themselves. Even though she speaks to women as a whole, I feel that she has singled out the insecure woman. Perino tends to write simply and to a low level of intellectuals in her articles. This topic is meant for a weak women trying to make it in the political world of mostly men.
