Question

How should this excerpt be edited to make it more objective?

A: by including direct quotations from the professor about his knowledge of the gambling ring

B: by interviewing the department chairman and the professor to get both sides of the story

C:I am moving the commentary that the professor is most likely involved in the gambling ring

D: by deleting the department chair man’s and professors name from the article

Answer 1

Answer: by removing the commentary that the professor is most likely involved in the gambling ring

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the excerpt online.

To make the excerpt more objective, the commentary that the professor is most likely involved in the gambling ring should be removed.

It should be noted that the highlight of the excerpt was about Professor Shuman which should not be the case. The involvement of the professor in gambling overshadowed the main issue itself.

Therefore, to make it more objective, the focus should be on gambling and it effects on the society and shouldn't focus on the Professor.
