The merger between Minion County’s Yin Cablevision and Lemming County’s Yang Cable Systems will provide a much-needed boost to Lemming County’s economy. The reason is that Lemming County businesses will now have more than twice as many potential viewers to which to advertise, thanks to Minion County’s denser population, which is twenty percent larger than Lemming County’s.
Each of the following undermines the above statements EXCEPT :
(A) The majority of Minion County residents already encounter frequent advertisements from most Lemming County businesses, via radio and print media.
(B) The merger between Yin and Yang came about because a growing number of Minion County residents do not subscribe to cable television.
(C) Most Minion County residents who watch cable television tune in to premium channels that do not show commercials.
(D) Many of the channels offered by Yang Cablevision broadcast programming are from out of state networks that do not accept advertising from outside of their respective areas.
(E) Rates to advertise on the merged networks’ channels will increase significantly, beyond the budgets of most area advertisers.

OA :
To locate the correct answer, cross out anything that inhibits the number or effectiveness of new advertising opportunities for Lemming County businesses. If (A) is true, then Minion County residents are already aware of what those businesses have to offer. Choice (B), meanwhile, suggests that cable subscribership is falling among Minion County’s population, while (C) points out that the merger will not bring Lemming County businesses significantly more advertising opportunities. Choice (D), however, does not affect the conclusion, because Yang Cablevision is already in Lemming County. Meanwhile, (E) poses budgetary problems for anyone wishing to advertise on the merged networks.

Thankyou for the breakdown . However I believe that option ' D ' weakens the arguement.
(OPTION D) Many of the channels offered by Yang Cablevision broadcast programming are from out of state networks that do not accept advertising from outside of their respective areas.
It says that many channels donot accept advertising , so it in a way limits the ability of Lemming County’s Yang Cable Systems to reach new audience. I think OPTION A would be the right option , although it says that the majority of Minion County residents already encounter frequent advertisements from most Lemming County businesses, via radio and print media.However it dosent mean that the merger wont boost the business.
