53. When investigators discovered that the director of a local charityhad repeatedly overstated the number of people his charity had helped, thedirector accepted responsibility for the deception. However, the investigatorsclaims that journalists were as much to blame as the director was for inflatingthe charity’s reputation, since they had naively accepted what the directortold them, and simply reported as fact the numbers he gave them. Which one of the following principles, ifvalid, most helps to justify the investigators’ claim (A) Anyone who works for a charitableorganization is obliged to be completely honest about the activities of thatorganization. (B) Anyone whoknowingly aids a liar by trying to conceal the truth from others is also aliar. (C) Anyone who presentsas factual a story that turns out to be untrue without first attempting toverify that story is no less responsible for the consequences of that storythan anyone else is. (D) Anyone who lies in order to advance hisor her own career is more deserving of blame than someone who lies in order topromote a good cause. (E) Anyone who accepts responsibility for awrongful act that he or she committed is less deserving of blame than someonewho tries to conceal his or her own wrongdoing.
Do no understand why C uses "anyone". I exclude this option by thinking that "less responsible than anyone else is " is wrong. |
