Chаpter 8 Purpоse аnd Tоne “Secret Medicаl Breakthrоugh!” screamed the headline. “Melt Pounds Away While You Sleep!” Then there’s “The Cure for AIDS Is Right in Your Refrigerator!” Or how about “Swiss Scientists Promise: You’ll Never Have Another Cold!” Advertisements and “news” stories like these appear in every supermarket tabloid and in the back pages of innumerable other publications. They all seem based on the same doubtful premise: “Doctors don’t want you to know the truth, but we’re going to tell you anyway.” Don’t let tabloid headlines tempt you into spending your hard-earned money.

An AIDS cure? A genuine weight-loss plan that involves no dieting or exercising? If such stories were true, you wouldn’t be reading about them first in the supermarket checkout aisle. If the public stopped supporting these publications, they would no longer be able to falsely raise hopes for thousands of readers. The primary purpose of the above paragraph is _____.
