Mediated communication reflects

AThe communicator's cultural background ✓ Correct

BThe social expectations of the under-privileged

CThe ethical desires of society

DThe majoritarian hegemony of language

Correct answer: (A) The communicator's cultural background

Explanation

Mediated communication reflects the communicator's own cultural background.

The values, symbols and habits of the sender's culture shape the message that the medium carries.

The social expectations of the under-privileged name one audience's demands, not what mediation mirrors.

The ethical desires of society describe a moral ideal, not the cultural stamp a communicator leaves.

The majoritarian hegemony of language points to dominance in language, not the personal cultural frame reflected here.

Every mediated message carries traces of where and how its maker was culturally formed.
