Question

Arun is researching a new grapefruit-and-avocado diet. He has found information about the doctor who came up with the diet program, three people currently on the diet, and a woman who lost 50 pounds in one month using the program.

Which of these sources would most likely provide balance and credibility to the news report?

A person for whom the grapefruit-and-avocado diet did not work
Several people who belong to a dieting support group and are losing weight
A doctor who runs a competitor's weight-loss management program
Three people who plan to lose weight through extensive exercise

Answer 1

To even out the sense of bias it would be optimal to add in “a person for whom the grapefruit-and-avocado diet did not work” as a counterclaim so the readers can view both sides of the claim.
