I have two answers: D.) Logical Fallacies. and E) endorsements

Logical fallacy is defined as an error in reasoning that undermines the logic of the argument. Fallacies are irrelevant or illegitimate points that lacks concrete proof to support the argument.

Faulty forms of reasoning is also known as faulty logic. Faulty logic is having an imperfect reason.

Most of these faulty logic are found in endorsements (commercials, print ads), newspaper editorials, tv shows, books, magazines, and even in conversations.
