Question 2
Audience fallacies are assuming that the audience reacts in a certain way by making a generalization of the audience. Authorial fallacies are when you assume the authors message but this message is not what they intended.An example of these would be perhaps be in a documentary when the author assumes that the audience will react a certain way to their footage by making a generalization of the viewers and when the audience may make a generalization about the message after watching to footage but the message may not have been exactly what the author intended. These want to be avoided so that the message you are trying to get across does not get misconstrued or misinterpreted by assuming something about your audience.
