Although it claims to delve into political issues, television can be superficial such as when each of the three major networks broadcast exactly the same statement from a political candidate.
(A) superficial such as when each of the three major networks
(B) superficial, as can sometimes occur if all of the three major networks
(C) superficial if the three major networks all
(D) superficial whenever each of the three major networks
(E) superficial, as when the three major networks each

Please explain

By POE I find E as the correct option.
Since "broadcast" is a plural verb, we need plural subject.

A Incorrect
- "such as" is awkward
- "each of the three major networks" is singular subject

B Incorrect
- "can sometimes occur if" is also not proper.
- We need "when" instead of "if"

C Incorrect
- We need "when" instead of "if"

D Incorrect
- "each of the three major networks" is singular subject

E Correct
- "as when" is properly used.
- IMO "three major networks each" is a plural subject.

Picking E over C.
Tough one for me.
C also looked right but preferred ' when ' over 'if'.
