  • Rhetoric, in the large sense, is any speech intended to convince. If one of the elements in that speech contains embedded bias, it is a prejudicial rhetorical device. Look for embedded bias. (BTW, nothing wrong with it.)
  • with the use of a rhectometer
  • I think a prejudicial rhetorical device would be a statement designed to sway the listener by using words that are supposed to prove, without evidence, the argument. It would be like saying "This guy thinks he's better than everybody else". No proof, because we aren't mindreaders. Another example, "He's so ugly, he must be guilty." An unjudical (are you sure you don't mean non-judicial) rhetorical device would a statement using evidence that could not be introduced into a judicial setting, such as "He is a liar". There is no proof, and it is merely an allegation, not proven evidence.
  • Nonprejudicial rhetorical devices use information or evidence already stated, but prejudicial rhetorical devices are the language of that individual and it is supported by little evidence, if any at all..
