    A - Changes the meaning
    B - awkward
    C/D - usage of alive distorts the sentence

    IMO E.

    Note the placement of all in the sentence. It can include either zero proceedings or some which are carried live, but E always include only some that were carried live as in there is no ambiguity. The intention is to bring out that Soviet audiences have seen a great deal of live coverage - this cannot happen if all the proceedings were not carried live as said in A. Hope this helps !!!
