Declan Walsh of the New York Times explores recent terrorist attacks in Pakistan and reveals the facts and effects.  He opens the article with a balance between pathos and logos. Walsh describes the graphic "latest attrocity" as he introduces the topic by depicting the most recent attack.  This explanation acts on pathos as he reveals the devastatinge events.  However, this pathos is backed up with logos as Walsh includes facts to add a credible foundation to his story.  He continues this logos as he develops the surrounding story that caused these events.  Throughout the article Walsh continues to rely on a mix of logos and pathos in order to relay the facts behind the events but the horrific results.  For example he quotes a member of the affected minority when he states, "It’s a sign that things are only going to get worse." He includes this quoation to demonstrate that this attack has larger implications for the terrorist series of events as a whole.  Walsh includes the right amount of background information to make the event comprehendable and also reflects on future implications.  His balance of logos and pathos reveals the factual evidence behind the situation but includes the emotional side to show the effects on the community.
