Question

questions 10-12- political cartoon 2

1. what problem related to media consumption does the cartoon illustrate?

a. lack of access to information
b. decline of print journalism
c. group polarization
d. media censorship

Explanation:

The cartoon shows two people consuming news they agree with ("NEWS I AGREE WITH…") and not understanding each other. Group polarization (option C) occurs when people are in like - minded groups, consume conforming media, and their views become more extreme, leading to misunderstanding with those outside. Option A is wrong as they have access to news. Option B is wrong as the focus isn't on print journalism's decline. Option D is wrong as there's no censorship; they choose agreeable news.

Answer:

C. Group polarization
