Which one of the following, if true, most weakens the reasoning above?
Many people overestimate the dangers that the world poses to them, regardless of the amount of television they watch.
A person is less likely to live in an area that is prone to natural disasters if that person watches an above-average amount of television than if that person watches a below-average amount of television.
People who watch a below-average amount of television tend to have a fairly accurate idea of the likelihood that they will be victims of a natural disaster.
People who are well informed about the risks posed by natural disasters tend to have become well informed in some way other than by watching television.
A person is more likely to watch an above-average amount of television if that person lives in an area that is prone to natural disasters than if that person lives in an area that is not.
