Tee gave an informative speech on the poor quality of potable drinking water available locally. he brought in a test kit and presented the statistics that proved the local water was unsafe for drinking. he advised his class to purchase a certain type of water filter- pitcher guaranteed to remove the impurities. at the end of his speech, he mentioned that he worked for the company that made the pitcher and had them for sale. what was tee's mistake?

I believe the correct answer to this question is:

“Tee violated the ethical guideline of having a responsible goal for a speech”

An informative speech should not be mixed with personal interests. In this case, Tee was like already advertising the product of their company which is not ethical.
