I have mailed you all some pages containing some fallacies that I want you to familiarize yourself with. In addition to the fallacies in the reading, you should find one of your own and document it (meaning you research it yourself). The only page requirement for this portion of the assignment is that it sufficient enough to explains the fallacy in your own words, where you found it, and contains any other information you think is important.
Second go to: http://www.southparkstudios.com/guide/809/
And watch the episode of South Park relating to Walmart.
In a one page response, consider: How it compares to "The High Costs of Low Prices"?
Although it is crude, analyze the argument of the show.
You might also consider things like: What is the show's stance on Walmart?
How can you tell? Does it use any of the fallacies?
Finally, you should begin thinking about your topic for the next essay.
