Questions 31-32 Politicalopinion and analysis outside the mainstream rarely are found on television talkshows, and it might be thought that this state of affairs is a product of thepolitical agenda of the television stations themselves. In fact, televisionstations are driven by the same economic forces as sellers of more tangiblegoods. Because they must attempt to capture the largest possible share of thetelevision audience for their shows, they air only those shows that will appealto large numbers of people. As a result, political opinions and analyses airedon television talk shows are typically bland and innocuous.

(D) there aretelevision shows on which economic forces have an even greater impact than theydo on television talk shows.
