Susan Greene

I really admired Susan Greene's article in the Denver Post, "Kids Know Better Than Bruce". It was not so much her use of sarcasm and belittlement, but more her development of ethos. She really created a personal voice, and I could tell just what sort of person she was after reading the piece. The way she spoke and made her point through the voices of children was very powerful and impacting.

I think you're very right, and I wonder, if you were to elaborate a bit more, what specific moments in her piece contributed to her ethos? What kind of person/writer would you say she is? How did the inclusion of the children's voices make such a powerful impact?
