Answer:

a. Relevant

Step-by-step explanation:

The documentary on prime time television that brought awareness to Cook Inc... being defendant in several lawsuits relating to it's defective tyres that has caused vehicles to overturn is a financial information that is relevant.

As a financial analyst, being presented with such information is very relevant and it makes me to consider it as a factor before issuing loan to the organization and also help to garner what the public'e perception of the company stock will be. In addition, the information will help to make predictions about future directions of the company's stock price and, evaluate the company's financial health and earnings potential to be able to pay back the loan if given the loan.
