Ignoratio elenchi red herring


[edit] odds and ends

[edit] Fallacies of logic

Fallacies of logic

One of the most common forms of ignorantio elenchi is the “Red Herring.” A red herring is a deliberate attempt to change the subject or divert the argument from the real question at issue;

Examples:

“Senator Jones should not be held accountable for cheating on his income tax. After all, there are other senators who have done far worse things.”

“I should not pay a fine for reckless driving. There are many other people on the street who are dangerous criminals and rapists, and the police should be chasing them, not harassing a decent tax-paying citizen like me.”

Certainly, worse criminals do exist, but that it is another issue! The question at hand is, did the speaker drive recklessly, and should he pay a fine for it?

Another similar example of the red herring is the fallacy known as Tu Quoque (Latin for "And you too!"), which asserts that the advice or argument must be false simply because the person presenting the advice doesn't follow it herself.

Example:
 "Reverend Jeremias claims that theft is wrong, but how can theft be wrong if Jeremias himself admits he stole objects when he was a child?"

[edit] My pet graph

Here is a heirarchy of information and reasearch, most Americans never go beyond the first step, few ever get to the last, deepest step of study:

Stage Source Example Deepth, Breadth, Commitment
1 Pop culture partisans Michael Moore, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly Least depth of information.
Broad but shallow.
Little commitment needed
2 Web blog partisans Commondreams.org, Frontpagemag.org .
3 Written partisans Chomsky .
4 Broad historical partisans Howard Zinn;
A Patriot's History of the United States : From Columbus's Great Discovery to the War on Terror by Larry Schweikart and Michael Patrick Allen		 .
5 Specific historial partisans Inevitable Revolutions, The United States in Central America; Benevolent Assimilation .
6 Specific historial non-partisans . .
7 Source material of historians Congressional records, Original historical documents Greatest Depth of information.
Deep but narrow.
High commitment needed.

[edit] Polls

Poll results
Organization # polled Margin of error Date polled # who disapproved
(do not support)		 # who approved
(support)		 News release good?
Washington Post[1] 502 +/- 5% May 11 35% / 34%1 63% / 66%2 56%3
Newsweek[2] 1007 . May 11-12 53% / 57%4 41% / 35%5
USA Today/Gallup[1] 809 +/- 4% May 12-13 51% 43% .

1 35% do not support the program, 34% were bothered by the idea of the NSA having a record of their calls

2 63% of the American public supports the program, 66% were not bothered by the idea of the NSA having a record of their calls

3 56% thought it was right for the knowledge of the program to be released while 42% thought it was not.

4 53% The NSA's surveillance program goes too far in invading privacy, 57% In light of the NSA data-mining news and other executive actions the Bush-Cheney Administration has “gone too far in expanding presidential power"

5 35% think the Administration’s actions were appropriate, 41% The NSA's surveillance program is a tool to "combat terrorism"

These results were later considered inaccurate by further polls on the subject.[3]
