Logical Fallacy of SpotlightThe Logical Fallacy of Spotlight occurs when it is assumed that all members or cases of a certain class/type are similar to those that receive the most attention or coverage in the media. This could be events, people, organizations, or just about anything else. Examples of the The Logical Fallacy of SpotlightSome of the spotlight effect happens in the news media, and is not without bias. The entertainment industry does at least as much as the news media to mold public opinion. The education industry is active in forming public opinion through the spotlight effect. It's too bad that so many of those in control seem to have set themselves against Jesus Christ.
