Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics. As it happens, Feldman’s accidental study provides a window on

to a form of cheating that has long stymied academics: white-collar crime. (Yes, shorting the bagel man is white-collar crime, writ however small.) It might seem ludicrous to address as large and intractable a problem as white-collar crime through the life of a bagel man. But often a small and simple question can help chisel away at the biggest problems. Despite all the attention paid to rogue companies like Enron, academics know very little about the practicalities of white-collar crime. The reason? There are no good data. A key fact of white-collar crime is that we hear about only the very slim fraction of people who are caught cheating. Most embezzlers lead quiet and theoretically happy lives; employees who steal company property are rarely detected. What purpose does the “bagel man” serve in this argument? to shift the focus toward a specific man to entertain the reader with a funny story to show the seriousness of cheating to shed light on white-collar crime

Which of these best describes why it's a good idea to be aware of a group or individual's agenda before we allow their message t
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

option B.

It's a good idea to be aware of a group or individual's agenda before we allow their message to affect our decisions because bias or motives can affect a message no matter how honest the source.

Explanation:

  • Inclination towards any subject is directly dependent upon one's motive.
  • No matter how honest is the source but his thoughts always reflects the biased opinion according to their agenda and motive.
  • So it is always a better option to be aware about the factor that can affect our decision making.
  • Get idea from every possible sources and filter it according to their background and agenda.

Based on this excerpt what is the best prediction about the future relationship between Telemachus and adysseus?
Yanka [14]
The best answer to the question above would be letter D. The excerpt clearly presents a scene of a father reuniting with a son, and embracing each other with such love and respect. Thus, it can be safely inferred that Telemachus and Odysseus will be able to work together in the future. I hope this helps!
