PrincipleDiff: Easy

Logic Breakdown

Passage Summary: Two car executives are debating whether an ad is deceptive: one says it's a lie because their new models have the feature mentioned, while the other says it's fair because many older models without the feature are still being sold.

Reasoning: N/A

Analysis: The core of the disagreement is the definition of 'deceptive' in advertising. The Zahler executive believes that if the newest model has a feature, saying they 'lack' it is a lie. The Graham executive believes that as long as there are still many cars on the lot without the feature, the claim remains valid. You are looking for a principle that Graham would embrace—likely one that allows for generalizations based on current dealer inventory—which Zahler would find unacceptable. It's a classic case of 'technically true' versus 'the whole truth.'

4.

The dialogue most strongly supports the claim that which one of the following principles is accepted by the Graham executive but not by the Zahler executive?

Correct Answer
A
Graham’s defense relies on the fact that Zahler still sells some new minivans without the seat, so the ad is not misleading. Zahler rejects this, calling the ad deceptive due to the presence of Zahler’s newest model with the seat. Thus, Graham accepts A’s principle; Zahler does not.
