Previously you were introduced to the concepts of deductive and inductive reasoning, now consider the following statement: "Traditional publishing has been rendered unnecessary by the rise of digital publication."

First respond by creating a deductive argument. Then, respond using an inductive argument. Each argument should be three-to-five sentences in length and should stand alone.

In a final paragraph, explain the type of deduction and induction employed in each argument, and which argument you believe is more effective in refuting or supporting the statement provided. Your focus should be on creating and accurately identifying a valid deductive and inductive argument.
