By studying the television-viewing habits of a number of average American households, a group of media analysts has discovered that people are less likely to switch channels during commercial breaks during rebroadcasts than they are during premieres and new episodes. The analysts have also found, however, that viewers pay substantially less attention to the broadcasts as a whole during rebroadcasts than they do during first-run episodes and premieres.
Which of the following is an inference that can properly be drawn from the passage above?
(A) The success of a commercial may not depend on whether the program during which it is broadcast is a premiere or a rerun.
(B) Commercials that are run during new episodes and premieres are seen in their entirety more often than not.
(C) Advertisers would be wise to run their commercials during rebroadcasts only
(D) There is an implicit trade-off in viewer response to first-run programs and rebroadcasts.
(E) It is not whether the program is old or new, but whether it is interesting or not that influences a viewer’s attention to the commercials shown during the program.

(A) The success of a commercial may not depend on whether the program during which it is broadcast is a premiere or a rerun.
as viewers switch channels more often during premiere than during re-run and as they do not pay attention to re-run then these two factors might not affect the success of commercials shown during such broadcasts
(B) Commercials that are run during new episodes and premieres are seen in their entirety more often than not.
This can not be inferred. viewers switch channels more often but we do not know whether they watch commercials fully
(C) Advertisers would be wise to run their commercials during rebroadcasts only
It seems so because viewers do not switch channels as often as they do during live broadcasts. However, viewers do not pay attention to rebroadcasts so most likely they will not pay attention to these commercials as well
(D) There is an implicit trade-off in viewer response to first-run programs and rebroadcasts.
there is no relation mentioned between viewers response between first run programs and rebroadcasts
(E) It is not whether the program is old or new, but whether it is interesting or not that influences a viewer’s attention to the commercials shown during the program.
viewers attention is out of scope of this passage.

Can someone explain why the answer is not D?
As people shift less channels during rebroadcasts but at the same time pay less attention. Isnt that the trade off?
