Answer:

A. Making informed decisions when voting.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question as well as the answer choices are oddly worded. However, the media is responsible for informing the public. While they are often biased and sometimes inaccurately representing the state of affairs, they inform the public nonetheless. Serving on juries and paying taxes don't really have anything to do with the media's duties. You could say running for local office, but the media is truly just an information source. While they may support someone running for office, they may also oppose and bash them. Therefore, they are most qualified to aid in the public making informed decisions when they vote.
