Good Afternoon everybody,

I find facts and stats are good when just trying to inform your audience about your topic. Especially if the purpose of the speech is not to persuade me, I would prefer to stick with the facts. In a persuasive speech, some facts or stats would be appropriate. If too many facts or stats are in either an informative or a persuasive speech, the speech might then seem to turn into an argument debate. At least that is how I see it. Another problem that may occur when using to many facts or stats in a speech, the audience may forget the speaker’s main point while trying to digest all the different facts and stats that are used.
