Critic: Fillmore, an influential television executive, argues that watching television regularly is not detrimental to very young children  Fillmore bases this on the claim, which I grant, that children can learn much that is beneficial from television
But we should reject Fillmore' s argument, because clearly it is to Fillmore' s benefit to convince parents that television is not harmful to their children
It rejects an argument solely on the grounds that the argument could serve the interests of the person making that argument.
