A
each | broadcast is wrong

B
can sometimes occur

D
each | broadcast is wrong

confused between C and E
will go with E
because if is not needed as this is not conditional clause

I had the same confusion b/w C and E. But isnt it conditional clause here? bcos it can be superficial if .........
still i have doubts. pls explain

[stop@800]

C means
television can be superficial if network broadcasts the same thing
this indirectly says
if netwrok broadcast the same thing
it is superficial

whereas e says
when network broadcasts the same thing.. its superficial....
when clarifies the timing aspect....


do let me know if thr is still any doubt
Perhaps I am not able to put forward my words clearly...

This question tests the subject-verb agreement. The verb is "broadcast" and it requires a plural subject.

In (E), "major networks each" goes with "broadcast".
