Think of advertisements (commercials, print ads, slogans, etc.) from your daily
life that are examples of emotional, ethical or logical fallacies. Come up with 2 examples
each of emotional, ethical, and logical fallacies, and identify exactly which type of fallacy
it is (e.g. Scare Tactic, Begging the Question, etc.) Consult Everything's an Argument's
explanation of fallacies if you need to review the definitions. List your group members'
names in your comment.
