If media supports only one party and ignores others, what problem arises?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Voters will not get balanced information

Correct answer: A — voters will not receive balanced information. Democratic choice requires citizens to be able to learn about different parties, candidates, policies, and criticisms. If media gives repeated attention to only one party and ignores others, voters may not hear alternative programmes or important questions about the favoured party. Their decision can therefore be shaped by an incomplete and one-sided picture. Option A identifies the problem. Option B is wrong because biased reporting does not increase the number of polling stations; that is an administrative matter. Option C is wrong because media bias does not make vote counting more accurate; counting depends on proper election procedures. Option D is wrong because secret voting concerns whether others can see a person’s vote, not whether media coverage is balanced. A fair media environment does not require identical coverage of every story, but it should avoid deliberate one-sidedness and allow meaningful public scrutiny. Memory cue: one-sided news means one-sided voter information.
