有个简单问题，求解释

OG的19题，说网站播了个争议事件后收视率下降了，但是网站说下降跟那个新闻没关。

相信大家应该还记得这个题目。
答案是a，说其他网站收视率也下降了那个月。

还有个答案e是我困惑的，说看网络电视的人多少跟经济有关。
我的理由是，e说经济和收视率有关，那下降的可能是因为经济情况变了，而不是那个争议事件的原因。
而a说其他网站也下降了并没有说有没有播那个新闻，如果播了，那不是加强了新闻和下降的关系。

翻译：
一个很大的网络新闻机构在播出了关于经济的争议性报告之后，观众数量下降了。而且这个网络还收到了很多关于那个报告的控诉。然而，那个网络机构认为对那个报告的负面反应并不是造成观众大量流失的原因。
以下哪一项，如果成立的话，可以支持网络机构的观点?
A. 其他的网络新闻机构在同一个周内经历了相同的观众的下降。.
B. 那些对这个报告提出控诉的观众都是经常看那个新闻节目的观众
C. 只有当新闻机构受到关于那些报告的控诉的时候，他才会把观众的下降归因于那个报告。
D. 这并不是这个新闻机构第一次因为播放了有争议性的经济报告而收到控诉。
E. 大部分的网络新闻的观众通常会把网络播放的新闻作为他们获得经济相关信息的首要信息来源。
思路：
文章的逻辑链是 不是controversial report导致了观众的流失。
楼主纠结的是E：
E. 是不是首要信息来源并不重要.
关联点在于A说了：这说明其他新闻机构都经历了观众数量的下降，也就是说观众数量的下降也就是说那个新闻机构的观众数量下降并不是由于报道了有争议性的经济报告，而是整体环境所致；
网上给出E的解释：
The problem with the justification you gave for E is that you assumed that there is only one network news station. Even if most viewers rely on network broadcasts, they could have abandoned this network as a result of the negative report and switched to another network. Thus the information in E doesn't do a good job of showing that the drop of viewership had little to do with the negative report.

The netwok also received a very large number of complaints regarding the report. The netwok, however, maintains that negative reactions to the report had nothing to do with its loss of viewers.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the netwok’s position?

(A) The other major netwok news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during the same week.

(B) The viewers who registered complaints with the network were regular viewers of the news organization’s programs.

(C) Major netwok news  organizations publicly attribute drops in viewership to their own reports only when they receive complaints about those reports.

(D) This was not the first time that this netwok news organization has aired a controversial report on the economy that has inspired viewers to complain to the netwok .

(E) Most netwok news viewers rely on netwok news broadcasts as their primary source of information regarding the economy.
