Q

but…

A
  • These criteria may not always
    bring desired results because
    many factors influence the
    outcome.
  • Sometimes, a good speaker may
    fail to get the results he wants; a
    poor speaker may win favorable
    results in spite of his weaknesses.
  • For instance, a speaker may get
    good results not because of his
    speech but because of popularity,
    or because he has made promises
    of reward to those who would buy
    his products or espouse his cause.
  • Not all who tell the truth are
    believed to be sound
    speakers.
  • Not all who sound truthful and
    sincere tell the truth although
    listeners naturally seek the
    best possible formula.
