Cherry-picking of evidence. </em>
Explanation:
Within the context of data and evidence analytics, <u>cherry picking</u> -also known as supressing evidence or the fallacy of incomplete evidence- is the act of pointing to some pieces of information or data that seem to confirm a position while setting aside some other cases that may be useful to contradict that position. This means that the person (in this case, Sasha) <em>cherry picking data</em> is looking for data that helps to illustrate his or her point of view developed prior to the analysis so as to create the impression he or she wanted. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
