The passage states that buzzers, people who are hired by a company to sell their products, have many critics and introduces three points for support. However, the listening says that the author's point of view about buzzing is misleading and casts doubt on all of the author's specific points that are as follows:
First, the author posits that consumers should know if that person is being paid by a company or not, which makes a significant difference to the consumers. The speaker, who works as a buzzer, contends this point by stating that buzzers first use the product and evaluate its goodness; thereafter, they can be hired as buzzers. Even though buzzers get paid by companies, they support a certain product after they have used it and then make their honest own impression to the consumers.
Secondly, the author mentions that because buzzers pretend they are private people, consumers become less critical in their judgment to the products. Conversely, the speaker refutes this point by saying that consumers are more critical that it is expected. They ask many questions regard the product's quality, price, and more before they buy it. Thus, people have their freedom to make a decision and it is not true that consumers being misled or forced by buzzers.
Lastly, in contrary to the author believes that buzzers are most likely to harm the social relationship in a community, the speaker rejects this claim by stating that buzzers can enhance people's trust when they buy products to meet their expectation.
All in all, according to the listening, the argument that buzzers are misleading to consumers is not as negative as it is described by the author's specific points.
