Persuasive Speech Topic?

What would be a good introduction to this persuasive speech topic?

• Ok so I am having a persuasive presentation next wk and I can't think of a good introduction to start off the speech. The topic I chose is watching tv should be reduced to the minimum. I am persuading my audience to watch less television. So does anyone have a good introduction to this topic? Like say you are doing a speech on this topic. What would your introduction be? I am looking for some ideas and I need to use one of the methods to get attention and interest to the audience(such as Relate topic to the audience, state the importance of your topic,startle the audience, arouse the curiosity of the audience, question the audience, begin with a quotation, tell a story) I also need to establish credibility and I am having trouble with the intro. So if anyone can help me out I would appreciate it. Thanks

• Answer:

  Ask rhetorical question as it is well known to enhance persuasion in communication, and then you can relate to them as to why you ask a question that has no answer in the first place, Audiences like to have the power to think and decide on their own, thus enhancing persuasion.
