In this passage, the words in italics <em>“But not to compel the media to pay attention.,”</em> are a fragment of the whole sentence or clause because, by itself, the fragment does not make much sense when you isolate it from the main clause, as the independent clause does (e.g. <em>"Each candidate will have exactly the same rights to formulate his or her policy proposals."</em>) As you see, this sentence makes perfect sense even without the fragment that starts from <em>"But...,"</em> and it cannot either be a subordinate clause since the conjunction 'but' is a coordinating conjunction that gives equal importance to two ideas; it is only used for coordinate clauses (i.e. two main sentences.)
You would use a Dictionary. Dictionaries show denotative meanings while thesauruses show synonyms.

According to the given excerpt from "The Necklace", there's a conversation between two people who I assume to be a couple. From their discussion, the man got her a piece of clothing that he went to great trouble to get so she could wear it for a party but she was not pleased and spoke angrily to him.
Based on this, the theme that it likely supports is that unhappy people are never satisfied.
