Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Explanation
Both statements hold, for conventional television does suffer a master slave architecture and computer based technologies do promote individualism and creativity.
The first statement is sound because broadcast television sends one way from a central source to passive viewers.
The audience there receives but cannot answer back through the same channel.
The second statement is sound because interactive computer networks let users create, choose and respond.
Such technologies hand control to the individual rather than a single broadcaster.
The contrast sets a top down medium against participatory, user driven ones.
