D

Explanation

The media can influence opinion and policy by investigating issues that matter to the public and monitoring government decisions and actions. It also shapes which topics people discuss by deciding which stories receive the most attention. Reporting celebrities may entertain, but it is not one of the main ways the media influences public opinion and policy, and media outlets do not control everything people see on social media.
