Acme Gizmotronics, the company that you've trusted for over 100 years, has recently
entered the World Wide Web! Now you can purchase our fine products through the
internet. Our quality gizmos, widgets, and thingamabobs can be shipped to you within
minutes. All come with the famous lifetime guarantee that makes Acme the company
that the world depends on for it's gizmo needs.
Our spokesperson, Mr. Coyote says "I'm not really a coyote, but I play one on tv. I've
used Acme products for years. Their slingshots, rocket launchers, crowbars, pogo
sticks, and power pills are the best around. And don't forget their high-powered
dynamite! I buy everything from Acme. They are the company that I trust the most."
ACME is currently supporting reasearch into a form of clean, ultra-efficient, cesiumbased power that promises to usher in a new period of cheap, globally available
power. Based on a small island off the coast of Costa Rica, ACME Technology
Research is one of our most significant divisions.

The speaker is vouching for it’s credibility.
Back to reality - ACME is not a real company,
contrary to popular belief. It's something we made
up to use as an example of Ethos. The ACME
homepage is an example of ethos because of the
way it keeps referring back to the character of
ACME. ACME is a company that "you have
trusted for over 100 years." They even have a
spokesperson vouching for their integrity.
$100 Question from Bias and
Assumptions
Identify the author’s bias and
assumptions in the following text:
And because it's cheaper to break than to fix, the
state Game Commission . . . intends to breach the
lower dam and develop the area as wetlands.
$100 Answer from Bias and
Assumptions
Those against destruction of the dam use the
sarcastic and somewhat catchy "cheaper to
break than to fix" line to suggest that the Game
Commission has gone for an oversimplified,
knee-jerk solution. That the commission intends
to create "wetlands" directly aligns it with
environmental interests, since wetlands are an
environmental cause. Thus, the group in favor of
the dam can align themselves against
environmentalists without saying they're doing
so.
$200 Question from Bias and
Assumptions
Identify any bias and assumptions
you find in the following text:
Doesn't Glen Canyon Dam keep America's water in
America, and keep the Mexicans from getting our
share?
$200 Answer from Bias and
Assumptions
Anyone who would use the terms "the
Mexicans" and "our share" might well have
an ethnic prejudice against Mexican
people. On another level, the Glen Canyon
Institute apparently expects that its
opponents have such prejudices, since they
list this as a Frequently Asked Question.
$300 Question from Bias and
Assumptions

Our new science textbook will be terrific! I have used
other textbooks by the same company, and they are

at our school says this is the best textbook
she’s ever used.
$300 Answer from Bias and
Assumptions
The statement is biased in favor of
a specific textbook because it
assumes that this textbook will
mirror other books from the same
company in quality and is
prejudiced towards the info given
by another co-worker.
