Question

Read the scenario.
In order to present a documentary about the safety of genetically modified organisms and their use in food, a television crew plans to devote an equal amount of time to filming two aspects of this issue:
scientists and their research on genetically modified crops
groups and individuals opposed to genetically modified food items
In this way, the television crew hopes to present both sides of the issue to help viewers make up their own minds in an informed way.
Which option correctly identifies a way the scientific validity of the information presented might be negatively impacted by this plan

The documentary might influence viewers to support whichever side of the issue is filmed and presented for the longer amount of time.


There might not be equal scientific evidence supporting both sides of the argument.


A television documentary is not an acceptable format in which to present scientific information.


The documentary will give no time to ordinary people, who might have useful opinions on the subject.
A?

Answer 1

They said the SAME amount of time for each group.

Answer 2

Now how exactly are the opponents supposed to present as scientifically grounded data as the scientists who have presumably been collecting data and writing and presenting on the subject? Who says the scientists are likely to think the GMO foods are safe and disagree with the opponents? The question itself is biased.
