Devitt writes that "the reintegration of product and process that this new genre theory enables . . . can contribute to our understanding of process and text-making." Has it contributed to anyone's understanding of these things? If so, how so?
Of the Onion headlines, Dirk writes that "they are a rhetorical action meant to bring about a specific response,
which is why I see them as being their own genre." Do you think that meeting this single criterion--i.e. being a rhetorical action meant to bring about a specific response--is enough for these headlines to qualify as their own genre? Why or why not?
