Answer:

(A) obsessive compulsive disorder

Explanation:

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is <em>a mental illness that is characterized by the compulsion to perform certain tasks in a certain way and/or the preoccupation with certain thoughts uncontrollably.</em> The latter is the obsessive component of OCD.

The classic OCD depiction is shown in the question, with a person obsessed with cleanliness and thus have a compulsion to wash his hands after meeting strangers to ensure that he is continously clean.

Though many of us might have certain characteristics that look 'OCD-like', <u>a diagnosis can only be made when the behavior is causing distress and/or inability to function on a day-to-day basis. </u>

Shows like the daily show and the Colbert report are known as soft news/infotainment, where news is presented in a humorous form and allows candidates to show their human side.

<h3><u>What is infotainment?</u></h3>
  • A form of media, typically television or internet, that combines knowledge and enjoyment is known as infotainment (a portmanteau of the words information and entertainment).
  • It is also referred to as soft news to separate it from serious journalism or hard news.
  • When applied disparagingly, the phrase may be used to downplay infotainment or soft news topics in favor of more "serious" hard news topics.
  • Due to the targeted publication of infotainment content by websites and social media applications like BuzzFeed, infotainment-based websites and apps are becoming more popular.

In September 1980, at the Joint Conference of ASLIB, the Institute of Information Scientists, and the Library Association in Sheffield, UK, the terms "infotainment" and "infotainer" were first used.
