Asked by Helina

what's the different when using "plus" and the word "and"?
For example,
the choices to the problem were:
1. Cronkite was known for his honest presentation of the news PLUS his reassuring tone
2.Cronkite was known for his honest presentation of the news AND his reassuring tone


Thanks.

The sentence requires a conjunction to join those two phrases.
