-
BOnly one of the drama show is still on
-
CAt least one discontinued show was a drama
-
DViewers prefer sitcoms over drama
Answer
Correct Answer: At least one discontinued show was a drama
Explanation
No reason is provided for discontinuation of any programme. Hence, option (d) is not correct. Three shows were discontinued. As no sitcoms shows were discontinued, they must be either drama or news magazine. Now, there were only two news magazines. So, at least one discontinued show was a drama. Hence, option (c) is correct.
