REPLY TWO PIST - Assignment Example

YOU WILL JUST UPLOAD THIS DOCUMENT FOR ME!!! Instruction of responses: For your responses, you should respond to two other mates’ original posts. Do their warrant identifications make sense? What similarities do you see between their warrants and the ones you identified? In other words, what do their high warrants and your high warrants share in common? Or not in common? Or, what about the same question for low warrants?
Student 1: Ben Nguyen
One low warrant from a friends profile would be a picture of us, four of us, in an Oregon Ducks game.  This is low warrant because one out of four of us, is a big fan of the Ducks.  We were all wearing Duck colors for that game, my friends bought merchandise and wore the items purchased at the football game.  This is low warrant because the picture can convey each of us being really into sports and/or fans of the Oregon Ducks.  One of us is a real Ducks fan and two out of the four of us is really into sports.  Not taking away from the fact we all had an amazing time and are somewhat fans of the Ducks.  But, Im sure the three out of the four of us can name more than two players in that football team.
One high warrant from a friends profile would be his personal information such as his name, job, school information, where hes from, and his birthday.  He was a tutor and student at EDCC, was from Oak Harbor, and currently lives in Lynnwood.  This is high warrant, because this information has no ambiguity and this type of information would be hard to hide or mask, assuming you knew of him.
In my friends profile, the picture is low warrant because it portrays all of us being Ducks fan, and I know my friend would not be able to name 2 players in the Ducks team.  He, as well as I, are not big into sports.  His personal information is high warrant because he is a close friend of mine and witnessed every fact regarding so.
(First, I would assert that Nguyen’s identification of the low warrant makes sense. The information that his friend placed on his profile can be manipulated easily and, hence less believable. His identification of this low warrant is almost similar to what I identified. The low warrant that I identified depicts my aunt’s message, which was in short form, and I could not easily understand it at first, hence I could not believe it. Likewise, this kind of information is likely to be manipulated and rendered less believable. I would also concur with Nguyen’s identification of high profile since such information is likely to be accepted, hence they make sense. This high warrant is different with what I identified because mine looked at place of residence and names of my best friend, which are likely to be believed.)

For this discussion, I explored social media "Facebook", and I searched about my close friend. I think this

Warranting Theory is important, since a wealth of information comes out from unreliable sources, and people

need to know how to tell the information is reliable or not. While i`m searching my friend`s Facebook, i figured

out that his background information like his birthday, where he was born, and the school where he graduated, is high warrant. And his picture is also high warrant. These are pretty reliable sources because these kind of

records are recorded in governmental documents, and cannot be easily changed. The low warrant is self-

generated statement like hobbies, personality. Since he is my close friend, I know some part of his

personality, but the information on the profile is to show everyone so that it tends to be nice, and shows 

small part of his appearance
(Similarly, Kim identified a correct example of a high warrant. As mentioned, information relating to birthplace and birthday cannot be manipulated easily. Thus, they are likely to be accepted as truth. His identification of high warrant is almost similar to mine since I also identified the place of residence and name of my best friend as a high warrant. Additionally, his identification of low warrant also makes sense. However, this differs with what I identified as a low warrant. Mine was about the message that my aunt sent me, which I could not interpret so easily, hence I could not accept it.) Read More
