After learning about fallacies in Chapter 11.3 Persuasive Reasoning and Fallacies from your readings last week, hopefully you will be able to start recognizing faulty logic in everyday life – it is all around us! Recognizing fallacies helps us to be more critical consumers of messages. This week, you will submit a discussion board post with two different types of fallacies.
To complete this assignment, do the following:
Find an example of two different fallacies in the newspaper, viewable news, magazines, commercials, talk-radio, et cetera.
Note: Do not use examples that you find from googling ?slippery slope? fallacy.
Include the following information for each of the two fallacies:
- An example (picture, link, or vivid description)
- Identify the fallacy
- Define the fallacy (What type of fallacy is it?)
- Explain why your examples are a type of that particular fallacy
