(D) Online advertising is expected to plateau over the next few years.

OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
(E) The publisher's conclusion is to publish in print on Wednesdays and Saturdays, most likely because those days feature coupons and therefore high readership. None of the other choices would support such a decision.
