question 2 of 10
the four candidates in an election are each supported by a different political
organization, as shown in the table below. if a report is released that speaks
very favorably about emily jones, which of the following political
organizations having published the report should result in the most
skepticism?
candidate | political organization that supports candidate
bruce watson | political organization a
cathy peters | political organization b
don harper | political organization c
emily jones | political organization d
a. political organization d
b. political organization b
c. political organization c
d. political organization a

Explanation:

To determine which political organization's favorable report on Emily Jones would cause the most skepticism, we analyze the relationship between candidates and their supporting organizations. Emily Jones is supported by Political Organization D. A report from her own supporting organization (D) about her in a very favorable light is likely to be seen as biased, as the organization has a vested interest in promoting her. Other organizations (A, B, C) support different candidates, so their favorable reports on Emily would be less suspect of bias compared to her own supporter (D).

Answer:

A. Political organization D
