Question

Standardisations of the arguments used in Helen Lovejoy's Facebook post and Professor Frink's

Facebook post. Make sure to clearly indicate the conclusions, cover all the supporting premises and

their sub-premises, and indicate whether they are linked or convergent where appropriate.

2. Analysis

A maximum of 1250-words analysis of the weaknesses AND strengths of the two arguments. You

should include:

a. Comment on the types of argument used (e.g. inductive, deductive, abductive, analogy, causal

claims), AND analyse them in the appropriate manner (e.g. weak/strong, valid/sound, etc.)

b. Any problems in the arguments used (e.g. violations of rules, notable fallacies, unsupported

or poorly supported claims, judgements on whether any research they've referred to is

handled correctly and honestly, etc.)

C. An analysis of the language, rhetoric, and possible biases used, tone and language (e.g. word

choice, ambiguity, spin, jargon, certainty and doubt, etc.)
