CR Challenger 12

Responding to criticism that the new nuclear power plant was potentially dangerous to the health of people in the surrounding county, the plant director claims that “the plant releases as much radiation per unit of energy as does the average television.”
Which one of the following, if true, would most weaken the plant director’s argument? The amount of radiation released by a television per unit of energy used is much greater than a similar measure for other standard household items including: microwave oven, telephones and computers. The total amount of radiation released into the atmosphere by the power plant is much greater than the total amount released by any television set. The power plant is an easily identifiable threat to the public health, while the television is not. Any nuclear power plant produces millions more units of energy than are used by all local television sets combined.
