Creators of some commercial television advertisements have received awards for the artistic merits of those works. However, the primary goal of advertising is to sell things. Because of this, commercial television advertisements should be ineligible for awards based on artistic merit.

The conclusion to the left is supported by which of the following assumptions?

A. Some commercials are created to sell products by causing the viewer to associate them with the positive feelings generated by the viewer's experience of the commercial's artistic merit.

B. Some commercial advertisement creators are more concerned with the profitability of the product than are others.

C. Commercial advertisement creators should focus more on the utility of the product than on the artistic merits of the commercial.

D. Works created with the purpose of selling the objects that they advertise should not be recognized for artistic merit.

E. Real artists do not cater to popular opinion.

IMO D.
This is very similar to an OG 12 question, I believe its one of the first 20 questions that talks about carpenters instead of advertising.
What's the source?
Being defeated is often only a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent.
