My take -
Premise #1 - Balance is particularly important when reporting the background of civil wars and conflicts
Premise #2 - Facts must not be deliberately manipulated to show one party in a favorable light, and the views of each side should be fairly represented.
Premise #3 - This concept of balance,however, does not justify concealing or glossing over basic injustices in an effort to be even-handed.
Premise #4 - If all the media were to adopt such a perverse interpretation of balanced reporting, the public would be given a picture of a world where each party in every conflict had an equal measure of justice on its side, contrary to our experience of life and. indeed, our common sense.
All are opinions by the author, there is no conclusion.
#1 states the importance of balance, #2 states no manipulation should be done, #3 states the drawback of balance
#4 supports #3.
A - Does not state the main point, the author states a counter premise in #3
B - Opposite of the concept of balance, balance reporting does not requiring revealing.
C - The topic is balance, this does not address the main point.
D - This is a opinion made by author and not a common sense sensed in general.
E - This is the main point. Balance cannot be realized and are biased on individual basis - #4 mentions this point - contrary to our experience of life.
