Entry 4: Tran Lan Anh
1, Item 1: ”Đám cưới đồng tính: khó chấp nhận”
“ Dù đây là đám cưới thật hay trò đùa thì dư luận cũng khó chấp nhận vì nó đi ngược lại truyền thống văn hóa, thuần phong mỹ tục của dân tộc …”
Analysis: - Content fallacy/ Appeal to tradition
-       Same-sex marriage is unacceptable because it is a rejection of traditional family values.
Many people are prejudiced against a lesbian relationship, so they usually cite “traditional values” as a reason to keep things the way they are and preserve some long-standing traditions.
2, Item 2: The title: “Bị hủy show diễn, Chế Linh nhập viện”.
-       Post-hoc fallacy ( Fallacy of presumption): false premise.
-       Although Che Linh was taken to hospital after his show had canceled, it doesn’t mean the cancellation of the show was the reason for his hospitalization.
3 Item 3: 

-       Quảng cáo Pantene: Hàng triệu người dùng thử, 87% các cô gái muốn dùng tiếp.
-                                   “ Tóc mượt, mềm mại,giảm gãy dụng”
-       Fallacy of relevant: appeal to popularity.
-       When almost pp agree on a claim about subject S, the claim is true.
 Pantene can help their hair to be healthier and softer, which almost pp (87%) agree on.
Therefore, it’s true.

  1. in my view, itme 1 and 2 ur analysis r ok!
    however, u should add st in item 3:
    + FALLACIES OF AMBIGUITY: 87 percent is a ambiguous figure
    + APPEAL TO CELEBRITY: i mean in the end of ads, Linh Nga- a famous dance performer appeared and said"..."- is a trick to attract customers to buy pro cause they think the famous use thr pro means it has good(even perfect) quality
