12. Are you still reading the other newspaper in town? Did you know that the Daily Bugle is owned by an out-of-town business syndicate that couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City? Read the Daily Clarion, the only real voice of the people of Gotham City!

Which of the following most directly refutes the argument raised in the advertisement above?

(A) Over half of the advertising revenues of the Daily Clarion come from firms whose headquarters are located outside of Gotham City.

(B) The Daily Clarion usually devotes more of its pages to out-of-town news than does the Daily Bugle.

(C) Nearly 40 percent of the readers of the Daily Clarion reside outside the limits of Gotham City.

(D) The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff of the Daily Bugle have lived and worked in Gotham City for ten years or more.（D）

这道题我觉得b比d更能weaken 结论，住的时间长说明不了任何问题啊?

这套题错了很多，郁闷。

B说DB经常刊登外地的消息，但没说本地的消息真不真，而DB报纸的广告强调的是它的老板是外地的，保证的是本地消息的绝对真实性real voice

D说它的雇员都是本地的，对本地的消息就难免有立场，所以WEAKEN了那个广告
