Logical Fallacies

You created fallacious arguments in class. Post them here. Be sure to include the names of all of the members of the group in your post.

Logic Posts

Look for examples in the media of journalists using bad logic and post them here. Please do not use any stories from Politifact, Factcheck, etc and stay away from politicians statements. Remember, we are primarily looking for examples of manipulation from the liberal press. Examples of strong arguments from the conservative press will do nicely as well.
