The reason that I chose this particular article was due to the fact I was beginning to have issues finding the word exigency linked to Rhetorical Situation. This site does however explain the word and in turn it can then be used properly in context with a rhetorical situation. If you dont know what it means, then you can't use it.

After reading this post,I found it rather enlightening. Initally when I thought of an audience, the dialogue was one sided. The speaker would attempt to get their point across while at the same time, keeping their audience captive with what they were saying. Allissa Quart seems to convey this message rather clearly and gives good pointers as to how to accomplish this.The article was written in May of 2008 and the authors credentials are unknown. Apparently rather fluent in journalism due to the writing prose.
