Answer:

B -  TV was a communications medium whose best uses were informing and educating the public.

Explanation:

Edward R Murrow, popularly known and referred as the 'Godfather of Journalism, was a  journalist and  broadcaster of repute in the 1950s.

His documentaries which are credited with changing journalism history, are still been aired today .

The movie, Good Night and Good Luck, where  David Strainhard starred as Murrow, is a classic adaptation of a real confrontation between Murrow and a serving Senator of the United States .

Please write a paragraph (5 sentences) about how you feel about crayons.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

I feel that crayons are not as good as coloring pencils or markers, because they do not draw nicely. If you go over it, it will have an erase-like effect that will leave a spot white. Crayons are better for smaller children who are not allowed to use pens or markers, because it lets them have a more creative imagination. They are easier to use on bigger spaces, rather than adult coloring books that have small spaces to color.
