A. Many rival airlines already offer discounts to people who book flights directly through their Web sites.
Just because other rivals are already doing that, Oriole offering this now doesn't shows us whether it will increase or decrease profit <- so uncertain if it will weaken the argument
B. Most consumers who shop for flights on independent Web sites find that Oriole's fares are the lowest.
If they are the least expensive already, then consumers will already likely been choosing them. So having a discount will not increase more consumers from booking them <- thus decrease profit.
C. Many independent Web sites that list fares from different airlines do not include special discounts that airlines offer only through their own Web sites.
This is a bit irrelevant, including the discount news or not in these independent websites is not the dependent factor for this argument here. So it doesn't really weaken or strenghten the argument.
D. Consumers who shop for less expensive fares through independent Web sites usually book flights through those Web sites rather than directly through airline Web sites.
Irrelevant, we are talking about offering discounts. We do not know if Oriole is the cheapest after the discount so can't tell if it would weaken or strenghten the Q
E. Oriole Airlines fares are generally not more than $20 less expensive than the least expensive fares from rival airlines for similar flights.
If it is $20 less expensive than the least, then it is lossing profit. But it is 'not more than', so it could be that it is $35 more expensive than the least expensive one <- in which case, could improving profit <- so weaken or strenghten is not definitive.

Hey MartyMurray,
at the end of the day, D just hints at the likely ineffectiveness of the plan (increasing profits) , but not the ineffectiveness itself, right?

Oriole Airlines plans to offer a $25 discount to anyone who books a flight directly through the airline's Web site. The executives reason that this strategy will increase net profits by encouraging consumers to visit the Oriole Airlines website directly rather than shop for less expensive flights through independent Websites that list fares from different airlines.
Which of the following, if true, would present the most serious potential weakness of the plan?
A. Many rival airlines already offer discounts to people who book flights directly through their Web sites. -- bidirectional, potential convolution , assumption chain needed, discount absolute value > < 25 ?.. ect
B. Most consumers who shop for flights on independent Web sites find that Oriole's fares are the lowest. --
C. Many independent Web sites that list fares from different airlines do not include special discounts that airlines offer only through their own Web sites. -- strengthener,
D. Consumers who shop for less expensive fares through independent Web sites usually book flights through those Web sites rather than directly through airline Web sites. -- weakens likelihood , not effectiveness
E. Oriole Airlines fares are generally not more than $20 less expensive than the least expensive fares from rival airlines for similar flights. -- fares <> profits
