the intended meaning: The deep historical knowledge of our contributors will expand views of the readers at this political movement and introduce the readers to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.

"them" is PR for "readers" =>a antecedent cant be in possessive form readers’ views => C,D out
"against this political movement" => "against" distorts the meaning. => B out

A and E
To reflect the intended meaning, "at this political movement" correctly use prep "at".
at >> for in this case (i dont know whether for is correct, I think "at" is best, it could be for and against, only "for" ~ support is not enough since the sentence said "diverse perspectives")

Answer: E

Sentence: The deep historical knowledge of our contributors, will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.

Meaning Analysis: Ok so deep historical knowledge(HK) of contributors will expand views of the readers on this political movement. historical knowledge will also introduce them to various scholarly perspective on the latest news.

ok lets see the opetions
A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, => this gives the meaning that the HK will expand the views of the specific set of readers. "the readers for this political movement" but that is not the correct intended meaning so not the ans.
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them, => again gives the meaning that the HK will expand the views of the specific set of readers. "the readers against this political movement" but that is not the correct intended meaning so not the ans.
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them => this is our ans as it gives correct meaning that HK will expand the views of all the general readers of this news on the political movement which correct usage here so this is our ans.
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them, => readers' means multiple readers and reader's means single reader that his/her view. here we it is talking about single reader's views but that is not the intended meaning. so not the ans
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them, => again not the meaning will expand the views of the readers at this political movement. so not the ans.

So ans is option C

The deep historical knowledge of our contributors, will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,

Explanation:
The original underlined phrase use the ungrammatical way of mentioning reader's views i.e. ' views of the readers'. The better way to say this is the plural possessive form i.e. 'reader's views'. Also use of 'for' changes the intended meaning of the sentence. It should be 'the historical knowledge will expand reader's views 'on' the political movement rather than 'for' the political movement.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, : As explained above, WRONG
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them, : Use of against here changes the intended meaning of the original sentence. Also the absence of the plural possessive form. WRONG
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them: This option correctly uses the plural possessive form i.e. 'reader's views' as well as conveys the intended meaning. CORRECT
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them, : views 'of' is incorrect. WRONG
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,: As explained, use of ungrammatical phrase and also the intended meaning is changed in the construction of this choice. WRONG

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
The two commas create a subordinate clause which makes no sense, without which the sentence reads as "The deep historical knowledge of our contributors to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news."

B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
Identical issue as with choice (A), the only difference is that now the word "against" is used instead of "for".

C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
Correct! This choice does not create an unnecessary and illogical subordinate clause, is parallel and the meaning of the sentence is clear and concise.

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
Same issue as choices (A) and (B). This choice also slightly changes the meaning of the sentence by using "of" instead of "on", now it implies that the. Probably the easiest error to notice is the use of "reader’s views". This implies that there is a single reader with multiple views, which is definitely not the case.

E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,
This choice too creates a strange subordinate clause. Besides this, there is an error in the use of 'at', which implies that the views of the readers will be changed at a political movement, as if the political movement were an event which it clearly is not.

Its matter of using the right preposition.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
This is Incorrect as for is not used properly.

B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
This is Incorrect as "against" changes the meaning of the sentence.

C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
This is Correct. "on" is the right preposition for this sentence to retain its meaning.

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
This is Incorrect as "of" is used incorrectly.

E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,
This is Incorrect. At is the wrong preposition since it changes the meaning of the sentence.
Correct Answer C

answer is C.

option D uses the apostrophe wrong. its plural, it should be readers' . so eliminate D

the intended meaning is to provide diverse scholarly perspectives. so it wont be for or against the discussed political movement. rather it will about that movement. option A is "for" and option B is against. so, we can eliminate A and B

"at this political movement" is wrong usage in the given context. so eliminate E

option C looks good in all aspects and gives the intended meaning. so option C.

-I can't explain the comma after the word "contributors", so I will just leave it there.
-Meaning: knowledge will expand readers' views and introduce readers to...
=>The comma after "introduce them" is unnecessary
=>Only C doesn't such comma
The answer is C

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, (Enclosing the clause within comma makes it the non-essential clause and thus can be excluded from the sentence. Thus the sentence becomes 'The deep historical knowledge of our contributors~~, will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,~~ to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.' which doesn't makes sense.)
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them, (Same as A)
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them (Correct. The exclusion of comma makes the sentence more concise.)
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them, (Same as A)
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them, (This sentence looks like it is presenting a list separated by comma which is not the case here.)

The original sentence's underlined portion states- will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
Two issues stand out to me at the offset. First, the sentence seems unidiomatic.
Secondly, there is no need for a comma after then.

Let's scan the answer choices and eliminate.
A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,
Eliminate.

B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,
Changes meaning, no need for the comma. Eliminate.

C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them
I was a little doubtful of this one, considering that the pronoun "them" would logically have to refer back to readers, which in this case is a possessive. However, I read an OA on GMAT Club and according to one explanation, a pronoun could refer back to a possessive. It is infrequent but possible nonetheless. Therefore, this statement seems the most concise. Keep.

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,
Unidiomatic. Eliminate.

E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,
"at this political movement" is unidiomatic. No need for the comma. Eliminate

A - views of the readers for this political movement - (1) use of "for this" is incorrect as it changes the intended meaning, (2) use of "them" to modify "views of the readers"

B - views of the readers against this political movement - (1) use of "against this" is incorrect as it changes the intended meaning, (2) use of "them" to modify "views of the readers"

C - (1) on this - correct, (2) them modifies "readers"

D - (1) of this - incorrect as it changes the intended meaning

E - (1) at this - incorrect as it changes the intended meaning, (2) them modifies "views of the readers" wrongly.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, - Incorrect - as the sentence seems to convey the meaning that views in the favour of political movement will be expanded, which is not the intended meaning
B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,- Incorrect usage of views of is incorrect, and additionally this sentence implies that views will be expanded against the movement
C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them - Correct
D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them, - Incorrect usage of *views of* is not correct in this context
E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them, - Incorrect usage of at is incorrect as the sentence seems to imply that political movement is happening at some place, which is not the intended meaning. additionally comma after readers makes the phrase "at this political movement--" as appositive and thus left the entire though hanging in the air.

The deep historical knowledge of our contributors, will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them, to diverse scholarly perspectives on the latest news.

Quote:

A. will expand views of the readers for this political movement and introduce them,

List 1:- will expand ... political movement
List2:- introduce them--> to what? incomplete meaning (there is comma between "them" & "to diverse...")
Wrong parallelism

Quote:

B. will expand views of the readers against this political movement and introduce them,

List 1:- will expand ... political movement
List 2:- Similar issue as present in A.
Wrong parallelism

Quote:

C. will expand readers’ views on this political movement and introduce them

List 1:- will expand ... political movement
List 2:- introduce them ... latest news.
Correct parallelism

Quote:

D. will expand reader’s views of this political movement and introduce them,

List 1:- will expand ... political movement
List 2:- Similar issue as present in A & B.

Quote:

E. will expand views of the readers, at this political movement and introduce them,

Wrong parallelism. "at this.." a prepositional phrase is being made parallel with "The deep ...introduce them" a clause.

IMO OA should be C.
