The correct answer is B. The media cover some issues and personalities more frequently, making them seem more important.

Explanation:

The media (television, radio, newspapers, etc.) is one of the most important factors that influence people's ideas and perceptions. This occurs because the media does not show reality objectively but covers some issues, events, personalities, etc. from a certain perspective while avoiding other issues that might be equally important.

For example, after the attacks of September 11 of 2001, the media focused mainly on this event and the need of the U.S. government to act; as a result, people perceived the attack as the most important national issue and considered the invasion of Afghanistan and other actions were necessary. This means by focusing on one issue, the media makes one issue seem more important than others and shapes the perspective from which people understand the issue.
