Identify the persuasive technique used in the text.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If video games are getting criticized, then the same should apply to movies and the like. People should be out there arguing over R-rated movies, but for some reason that doesn't happen. Movies like Saw and Hostel are out there, and they rack in quite a bit of money. The director gets the liberty of expressing himself in any way he pleases, whether it be with an exciting car chase or a gruesome murder scene, but a video game developer is restricted. It goes to show that people just want something to blame, and video games are easy prey. Identify the persuasive technique used in the text. a. appeal to emotion c. appeal to character b. appeal to intellect or reason d. discredit the other point of view

OpenStudy (wolfboy):

A scapegoat is a saying for a thing that is blamed because people want to appoint it to something. EXAMPLE: Jews were a scapegoat for Germany's problems

OpenStudy (wolfboy):

They were not necessarily, just had the blame dropped on them
