Critical Thinking: The Fallacy of Appeal To Popularity
This video is designed to help students, lifelong learners and professionals understand the Fallacy of Appeal to Popularity -- a common mistake in reasoning and argument.
In this video, I discuss what the fallacy is, map out its basic structure, point out what goes wrong with reasoning in the fallacy, examine three easy-to-understand examples, and give you advice about how to spot and avoid the fallacy.
This is part of a whole series of videos discussing common fallacies. To see the whole series, you can click here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLy91AvVMEx_9q5dUC_w2AFzaS-qBN3mEg
Intro music is YouTube's public domain mp3, "Keep It Tight," by John Deley.
