Question 5 • 11011de2 CONNECTED Fall 2026 NM-US History and Geography S2

Which statement best explains how the Internet affected newspapers and magazines?

Answer
A
Internet use is unrelated to newspapers and magazines, so it had little effect on those publications.
B
Internet use promotes reading, so it positively affected newspaper and magazine subscriptions.
C
Readers for online news sources and magazines increased, which boosted print publications.
D
Readers for online news sources and magazines grew, but the readership for print publications shrank.

Explanation

As more people began getting news and magazine content online, readership of those digital sources grew. At the same time, fewer people read printed newspapers and magazines, so D best describes the effect. Online growth did not necessarily boost print readership or subscriptions.
