In my opinion, Facts and Statistics are most important when the presenter is trying to persuade the audience or simply give insight on a particular topic. For instance, for an informative speech on AIDS, statistics can provide the audience with specific information such as an age group that is infected. In Addition, facts can provide the audience with data on when the AIDS virus started, and information on treatments. Although "facts and stats" are great fillers, for some speeches they are better left out. For instance, The Debutante Ball was my first speech topic, and although I had a lot of facts to present about the history, and certain criteria, there was no necessity for "stats."

Hi Kw33nSpeak3r,
ReplyDeleteI also think that facts and statistics are very useful for a persuasion speech. This is because I think when we are trying to persuade someone, there's always need to be a back up and I'm pretty sure that facts and statistics are very useful because these show the truth and there are nothing that can go against it. Although, there are some other choices where we can back up our point.
