Ads & Fallacies (1/16/13)

Corn Flakes
This ad uses logos, because it's logical to buy corn flakes that "won't wilt" and will stay crunchy.

A fallacy commited is a half-truth; they only mention how they're made from corn, despite the fact that they have rice in them.


Alkaseltzer
This ad uses logos, because it's logical to use a medicine that's the best and can cure "anything.'

The fallacy used is argument from omniscience, because they claim it can be used for any stomach and to solve any problem.


Delk
This ad uses logos, because you'd want to save money on your car and get the best quality service.

The fallacy is argument from omniscience, because you can't guarantee you'll get the deal before anybody else.
