Informed people generally assimilate information from several divergen

I choose D as my answer. Here's why:

A. The word "suspect" made this option not attractive. The argument didn't claim that sources from the state depart should be in suspect. The argument only claimed that there are differences in opinion between the sources...that's all. whether you suspect or not, that's YOU'RE choice, but that's not what the argument is asking people to do at least.

B. The word "integrity" made this answer choice loose it's merit. There is no mention in the argument of what the news media should do to protect their integrity. The argument only says that do expect to find differences in opinion, that's all.

C. The word "accurate" made this answer choice loose as well. The argument didn't investigate which source is more accurate. It only says that differences in opinion exist. Now which one is more accurate is a totally different scope.

D. EXACTLY

E. It implies that the State department doesn't come up with an accurate claim about foreign events. We don't know which sources is more accurate. All we know is that the state department's opinion appears to be different from other sources....which source is more accurate??? we'll you're getting into a completely different scope here.

hope this helps
