Companies engage celebrities to endorse their products through adverti

Companies engage celebrities to endorse their products through advertisements in the electronic and the print media. The gullible public may buy and use even such products which may not really be good, because they admire the celebrities. Thus it would be proper to penalise celebrities if they endorse sub-standard products.

Which of the following, if true, suggests that the action above against the celebrities would be unwarranted?

A. Celebrities work only on a contract basis with the companies and are not responsible for the quality of the products.

B. Celebrities are invariably provided with really good samples before they endorse a product.

C. Public are not pressurized directly by the celebrities to buy the products.

D. Celebrities do not discredit the product of other brands.

E. Celebrities only care about profits.



D and E are out of Scope.
The passage only mentions that some products which may not be good are endorsed by celebrities. This need not necessarily be based on the "quality" of the product for eg: it could be based on the result.(Something which is of high "quality" need not provide the best result). Hence eliminate B.
This brings us down to A and C.
The question asks which of the following If true would suggest the action to be unwarranted. C is a truth that can be inferred from the passage.

Hence only A can be the answer.
