Every one of the ninety readers who wrote to the magazine about its redesign disliked it. The redesign is therefore unpopular with the magazine's readers as a whole. The magazine has forty thousand subscribers.

The flawed reasoning above is most similar to that in which one of the following?

AEvery guest who filled in the hotel's comment card mentioned the noise. The noise therefore bothers the hotel's guests generally.

BThe hotel's guests are bothered by the noise, so the guests at other hotels in the same part of the town, where the same noise carries at night, must be bothered by it as well.

CEvery one of the ninety readers who wrote to the magazine disliked the redesign, so the magazine ought to change the redesign back.

DEvery guest who filled in the hotel's comment card mentioned the noise, so most of the hotel's guests must have filled in a card of their own.

EMost guests who mentioned the noise had rooms facing the road, so the road is the likeliest source of it.
