题目：

"Over the past year， our late-night news program has devoted increased time to national news and less time to weather and local news. During this period， most of the complaints received from viewers were concerned with our station's coverage of weather and local news. In addition， local businesses that used to advertise during our late-night news program have canceled their advertising contracts with us. Therefore， in order to attract more viewers to our news programs and to avoid losing any further advertising revenues， we should expand our coverage of weather and local news on all our news programs."

Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

中文翻译：

去年，我们的深夜新闻节目投入了更多的时间播放全国新闻，较少的时间播放天气预报和地方新闻。在同一时期，我们从观众那里获得的投诉大部分是关于电视台对于天气和地方新闻的播放的。而且，若干曾经在我们深夜新闻节目播放广告的地方企业刚刚取消了和我们的广告契约。因此，为吸引更多的电视观众观看我们的新闻节目并避免失去未来的广告收入，我们应该在我们所有的新闻节目中增加天气和地方新闻的播报。
