Question

Read the excerpt from the article "Prominent Farmer Robbed and Killed." A farmer named Hossack was struck over the head and killed by unknown parties, at his home a few miles out from Bedford. Which most supports the idea that the excerpt is factual? It suggests that the killer is unidentified. It contains judgmental words and ideas. It is presented as merely a hypothesis. It can be proven using objective evidence.

Answer 1

Answer: It can be proven using objective evidence.

Explanation:

Factual information can be proven by objective evidence based on research into the information. Information that is not factual can also be proven to be baseless by the same method.

If indeed therefore, that the above scenario can be proven by objective evidence then it would be considered factual. Should there be an investigation and the evidence is not objective, this would not have been factual.
