Given below are two statements. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Both statements are false.

The first says the transmission model puts no emphasis on the process of communicating, yet this linear model centres precisely on the process of sending a message from source to receiver.

Its whole diagram of sender, channel and receiver is about that transfer process.

The second says the symbolic model does not focus on the exchange of information, yet the symbolic or ritual model is deeply concerned with the sharing and creating of meaning.

That model treats communication as the mutual production of shared meaning through symbols.

Because one denies the transmission model's process focus and the other denies the symbolic model's concern with exchange, neither holds.
