The answer is:

Odysseus is the son of Laertes and is widely respected for his cunning.

Read each statement, and identify whether it conveys an objective tone.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Introduction:

We use an objective tone to provide information in a neutral, impersonal way.<em> An objective tone focuses only in the facts and sticks to the information only</em>, it avoids personal pronouns and judgmental words.

Answer:
