Assignment:

This one does not require all the structures of a formal essay, such as an introduction and conclusion, a thesis statement, or supporting paragraphs. But you should still write in paragraphs and format the paper using MLA guidelines. You should also focus on the specific task that I want you to address which in this case is to practice finding, naming and explaining a logical fallacy.

We've now studied the many kinds of logical fallacies that people can make when presenting an argument. For this assignment, find an opinion-based article or an editorial that presents an argument which also commits some kind of logical error. Identify the fallacy committed and explain precisely how the logic is faulty in the argument. You may also consider the responses readers post to the argument-what logical fallacies are presented in response? Are any of these fallacious arguments persuasive despite their logical flaws?
