Which statement most accurately describes how the author's word choice expresses his feelings on electronic media, such as telev

ision?
Together, this ensemble of electronic techniques called into being a new world — a peek-a-boo world, where now this event, that, pops into view for a moment, then vanishes again. It is a world without much coherence or sense; a world that does not ask us, indeed, does not permit us to do anything; a world that is, as the child's game of peek-a-boo, entirely self-contained. But like peek-a-boo, it is also endlessly entertaining.

-A. Calling our culture a "peek-a-boo" world suggests that the author thinks new media have made us more childlike.
-B. By comparing new media to an "ensemble," the author asserts that new media create harmony between people like never before.
-C. Postman's excitement about the changes over the past 100 years in how we consume media comes through in his word choice.
-D. The idea that peek-a-boo is "endlessly entertaining" is false; just as adults grow out of peek-a-boo, they get tired of television.
