Answer 13

Carefully read the following passage. Then, answer the question below.
The growing popularity of the Internet as a source for news and entertainment is creating an environment in which media producers have less control over their messages than in the past. Internet users as an audience can access a media message whenever they want and as many times as they want. This flexibility allows audience members to avoid certain messages more easily than they might have avoided a message delivered by a television anchorwoman on a major news network, for instance. The Internet even offers users the capability to copy and reuse a producer's message in a completely different context. That secondary context may receive more publicity—a larger audience—than the original. The Internet also provides so many opportunities for users to “talk back” to producers and to post their own media that media producers are being forced to accept audience members as “co-producers.” Even major news networks, who once considered themselves authorities on events of the day, are asking viewers to provide unmediated reports “from the field” of their daily lives.
