Bitzer and the Rhetorical Situation.

What Bitzer talks about in the Rhetorical Situation is that of taking Rhetoric out of the context of Subject or audience, and makes it into an instance, a matter of situation and decision in terms of what to acclimate an argument to and so on. Rhetorical Situation is defined as being the exigence of a complex circumstance, unto which one makes decisions.

Bitzer is right when he talks about how a situation can be created using Rhetoric, considering its mostly situational as it is. One must come up with a rational point of view when making an argument towards... well, anything really. it's an interesting article in the sense that it forces the reader to sort of break down to the essence of what Rhetoric is.
