What is the main reason sarcasm may be misunderstood in a written online message?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cues such as tone, facial expression and gestures are absent

The governing concept is non-verbal communication. Sarcasm often depends on tone of voice, facial expression, timing and gestures to show that the literal words are not intended seriously. In plain text, many of these cues are missing, so the reader may interpret the sentence literally or as rude. Thus option B is correct. The other choices are false or unrelated: online messages do contain words, are not always public, and the receiver normally can see the screen.
