There has been a sharp decline in revenue from television advertisements in the state, and three of the main networks are considering major cuts in their programming and news offerings. At the same time, residents of the state are watching more TV than ever, and many smaller local channels are flourishing financially.
Which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent contradiction above?
A. Six months ago, the three main networks agreed to cut in half the rates charged for 15- and 30- second advertisements.
B. Many viewers in the state have started recording their favorite programs to watch at a later time, allowing them to skip over commercials.
C. The survival rate for newly-launched local channels is higher this year than it has been in previous years.
D. An increasing percentage of state residents are turning to online sources for the news.E. Many smaller channels are largely funded by public donations.
E. You are asked to explain the seeming paradox of flourishing local stations set aside huge cuts in advertising revenue.
[spoiler]OA: E[/spoiler]
I am confused on how the author track down to answer [spoiler]choice (E)[/spoiler]
E states only about the public donations to smaller channels,it doesn't mention about why there was rise in people watching T.V.
E resolved only a part of the argument.
