McKee: Heckling the performer is a long-standing tradition of stand-up comedy. The performers know this and learn to respond entertainingly. That's why it's unwise for comedy venues to prevent audience members from heckling.
Chapman: Heckling is only a long-standing tradition of comedy because it's tolerated. And it's usually only fun for the heckler. In most cases, heckling is just a distraction from the performance.
McKee's and Chapman's statements indicate that they disagree about each of the following EXCEPT:
(A) Comedy venues should tolerate audience members' heckling the performers.
(B) Stand-up comedians' responses to heckling should be considered part of their stand-up comedy performance.
(C) The best stand-up comedians are able to respond entertainingly when they are heckled by audience members.
(D) Many audience members at comedy venues enjoy watching stand-up comedians respond to heckling.
(E) It is unwise for comedy venues to disregard longstanding traditions of stand-up comedy.

The answer is C since this is the only option on which Chapman and McKee do not disagree mainly because the passage does not talk about the "best stand up comedians" being the ones who are able to respond entertainingly when they are heckled by audience members.
