Logos Abuse

This link will take you to a website criticizing Hydroxycut weight loss supplement. This is an example of logos abuse because in this article it says that Hydroxycut claims that, fitness competitor and model, Brandy Flores' figure is due to their product. This is completely false. The "Before" picture they show of Flores is right after she  delivered a baby, which they failed to mention in the ad. They make the product seem to work better than it actually does.

This link will take you to "The Belly Burner" video. This is an example of logos abuse because they only show/talk about the best results. They don't mention the "normal" or "not so good" results. It also says in small print that "results vary", which means not everyone is going to lose as much weight as the people on the commercial.

This link will take you to the Lunesta commercial. This is an example of logos abuse because they say things like "clinically proven" and only talk about the "good results" not the "bad". They don't give both sides of the story. But they do say that results may vary.
