Baron explains, “More people are writing in North America, in Europe, and even in part of the world where individuals have not typically had a public voice.” (718). This quote opposes the first because it describes writing’s positive effect, giving the unheard commoners a public voice. He uses this opposing idea of the positivity of writing to create an argument in the paper and establish a purpose. To clarify, throughout the passage Baron considers two ideas, one opposing the other, and one opposing Baron’s presumably, but unknown to the reader which it is.
