The passage suggests that if a news commentator presented an editorial agreeing with the huxleyan warning, many viewers would:

A) Take whatever action was necessary to combat the danger.

This response would be more likely in the case of an Orwellian culture, which the author states is like "a prison" and "much easier to recognize, and oppose than a Huxleyan [world]."

B) Listen carefully to the commentator and then explain the ideas to others.

The passage suggests the opposite response: "Huxley believed that we are in a race between education and disaster, and he wrote continuously about the necessity of our understanding the politics and epistemology of media, he  was trying to tell us that what afflicted people in Brave New World was not that they were laughing instead of thinking."

C) charge that the commentator was irrational or needlessly alarming viewers.

The passage suggests that the commentator would invite this charge: "Those who speak about this matter must often raise their voices to a near hysterical pitch, inviting the charge that they are everything from wimps to public nuisances to Jeremiahs."

D) Be receptive to learning more about the danger.

The viewers would be unreceptive to learning about the danger, because, according to the author, this world would appear benign.
