Overview

A CBS Sports reporter interviews multiple attendees at a golf event, asking each person the same question: 'What score do you have to shoot to be considered a good golfer?'. The video rapidly cuts between the various interviewees as they provide a range of answers, from 90 down to 75. The reporter expresses surprise at the lowest answer and concludes by commenting on the high skill level of the people she interviewed.

    The Nuance Introduction

    Introduce answers that add a layer of specificity or a different condition, slightly elevating the complexity of the initial question.

  3. 3

    The Point of Contention

    Juxtapose two directly conflicting popular opinions back-to-back to create a mini-climax and highlight the core of the debate.
