A major network news organization experienced a drop in viewership in the week following the airing of a controversial report on the economy. The network also received a very large number of complaints regarding the report. The network, 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 network’s position?
　　(A) The other major network 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 network news organizations publicly attribute drop in viewership to their own reports only when they receive complaints about those reports.
(D) This was not the first time that this network news organization has aired a controversial report on the economy that has inspired viewers to complain to the network.
(E) Most network news viewers rely on network news broadcasts as their primary source of information regarding the economy.
the answer is A .
在下选的是B 理由很简单，因为是regular viewer 才可能继续看，从而说明loss of viewers 不是由于负面行为造成的，这不是加强么？而后面答案给出的解释很诡异
if anything， this statement tend to undermine the network's claim, because it suggests that the report offended people who otherwise might have continued to watch the organization's programming 这个整句话的意思不是加强么，那不是就应该选B 么起码A 与B 都可以啊？跪求指教

另外，选项的意思是抱怨的这些人都是一些铁杆观众，那不是strongly suggests that 下降与抱怨无关么？

A\B 两个选项都采用了类比的形式，并不能直接的否定或支持结论，从这一点的意义上来说两个选项都是一样的因为都需要infer一下。没有本质性的区别啊   望大神回复

相关因果
前提：对抱怨的消极反应，观众减少
结论：这种消极反应导致了观众的减少
问削弱

相关因果。四个CQ.涉及XY的都留下，只涉及Y的一定要能解释Y。

A 只涉及Y并且解释了Y。涉及了“观众减少”，全行业都是这样，又不是我一个。这是个整体趋势，不是个别趋势。我觉得这个选项后面暗示了有他因导致这个行业观众减少，但是没说出来。

B 抱怨的都是铁杆观众。 我不太理解你的意思。抱怨的都是铁杆观众，所以呢？这些人抱怨完了以后是 看 还是不看这个节目了？
如果因为铁杆，收到消极反应了，还是继续看的话，那么观众就没有减少啊
如果因为铁杆，收到消极反应了，就不看了。那就是因为消极反应 所以不看了啊，这个加强了结论中的 这两者的因果联系。题目中找削弱。

对不起，可能我没说清楚，是因为是铁杆观众所以不会影响他们继续观看，如果从这个角度，B也是可以的啊

抱怨的都是regular，但这并不代表regular在抱怨完之后还会看啊。。。我也错了，选的都跟你一样- -
您得出的这个结论应该还要base一个这样的假说”regular在complaint之后不会降低阅读欲望，依旧会像从前一样支持该network“
regular也是会被伤害的，嗯，就是这个意思。

Extremo

A is right.

(A) The other major network news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during the same week. >> so the reduction is not because of the controvercial report. everbody faced that. This supports the network's position.

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

(C) Major network news organizations publicly attribute drops in viewership to their own reports only when they receive complaints about those reports. >> weakens the conclusion.

(D) This was not the first time that this network news organization has aired a controversial report on the economy that has inspired viewers to complain to the network. >> but did they loose viewers in past when this happenend? not sure. So this doesn't support the position.

(E) Most network news viewers rely on network news broadcasts as their primary source of information regarding the economy. >>> Out of scope

我要喝可乐

我一开始也选了B，但是仔细一读选项发现原来是我读题失误。
B说的意思说，抱怨的是常客，我读成了经常抱怨的是常客。
如果抱怨的是常客，抱怨可能是一次性的就是指这个负面文章，所以很可能就会失去客户了。
而我原来认为“经常”抱怨的是常客，所以假象经常抱怨了还留在之类做忠实客户，可见这次抱怨了也不会撤，所以就开始YY加强了结论，确实丢失客户和报道的负面反应木有关系啊。
