The scenario being described is an example of a self-serving bias. This is mainly when someone blames other people or factors for the bad things that have happened to them. In this scenario, the girls are blaming the umpire as the reason that they lost the match, but in reality the girls most likely lost the match because they did not play as good as the oppossing team. For the team it is much easier to blame the umpire instead of accepting that the reason for losing was due to their own lack of practice.
From the question, we can see that the word "contradictory" was used to describe the relationship between the reception (media) and the demeanor (the artist).

The word "least" in the sentence also goes to predict that the choice of answer will be positive and thus eliminates all negative options.
Democracy is an appropriate term to use for our system of government because the whole aspect of our government is to let the people decide through voting. The people have the most power, that’s what it’s supposed to be that’s what was set in the books but sometimes government officials find loopholes to do things the American people don’t want. But the whole aspect of our government is to let the people vote and have a say in the ruling of their country.
