HELP PLEASE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE !!!!

Why were Northern newspapers critical of General Grant after the Battle of Shiloh?

Grant wouldn't have been able to win the battle without General Buell's help.


Grant's poor planning allowed the Confederate army to advance on the first day of battle.


The area gained in the battle was of no importance for the Union army.


The number of soldiers who died in the battle was shocking.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Not entirely sure about this, but it seems like the most reasonable for a few reasons: A General Buell isn't mentioned in the question, and if the area was of no importance to the Union, then why would there be papers about it? The number of soldiers that you know what is also a likely option, but how would it be critical for General Grant? Hope this helps!! :D
