Discussion
Assertion (A) : Editing is a lost art in print journalism.
Reason (R) : These days, language precision is not a qualification for recruitment by newspapers.
Answer: C
The official key gives C: A is true and R is false.
Many commentators hold that editing, in the sense of careful checking, cutting and correcting of copy, has declined in print journalism, with smaller desks and the pressure of deadlines (A).
The reason says that language precision is not a qualification for recruitment in newspapers. That is too sweeping to be true, since command of language is still a basic requirement for journalists, so R is false. A and B would accept R, and D would reject A.
