Speaking Ethically<\/h3>\r\n
\r\n\r\nImagine that you are preparing a speech on the benefits of a new drug, and you find a direct quotation that clearly establishes your argument. Unfortunately, you soon realize that the source of your quotation is actually a lobbyist who works for the pharmaceutical company that manufactures the drug. You really want to use this quotation as your attention-getter, but you realize that the source is clearly biased. Which of the following options do you think is the most ethical? Why?\r\n
    \r\n\t
  1. Disregard the quotation and find another way to start your speech.<\/li>\r\n\t
  2. Use the quotation, but acknowledge that the source comes from a paid lobbyist of the pharmaceutical company who manufactures the drug.<\/li>\r\n\t
  3. Use the quotation and just give the name of the source. If your audience is interested in your topic, they\u2019ll do their own research and make informed decisions for themselves.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
