ANSWER: A.Print media stopped writing about the Space Race because television was already covering the news

EXPLANATION: The statement that media stopped writing about the Space Race between the countries because the television was already covering the news is false. This is because people always prefers the news which are written in detail rather than only the headlines or short writeup to be presented. The space race being a big news for every country will be an interesting piece of article for every citizen of the country. TV news is for a short period of time which stays for seconds or maybe minutes. Another point that proves the statement wrong is that during these periods TV was not a common piece of electronic for everyone whereas newspaper was mass public.
