Dear Friends,
Here is a detailed explanation to this question-
A: This answer choice features a subject-verb disagreement between the verb "are" and the noun phrase "each of the recent lawsuits"; the use of the word "each" makes this phrase singular. Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.
B: This answer choice repeats the error seen in Option A. Additionally, this answer choice uses the plural pronoun "they" to refer to the singular noun "the media giant"; remember, nouns such as "media giant" or any other noun that refers to an organization, are known as collective nouns and are always singular. Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.
C: This answer choice maintains correct pronoun use and subject-verb agreement throughout the sentence. Thus, this answer choice is correct.
D: This answer choice repeats the pronoun-related error seen in Option B. Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.
E: This answer choice features a subject-verb disagreement between the plural verb "face" and the singular noun "media giant". Thus, this answer choice is incorrect.
Hence, C is the best answer choice.
