Read the following transcript of the end of Orson Welles's radio broadcast of the War of the Worlds, in which a narrator remembers a time when aliens
invaded Earth. During the radio broadcast, many audience members became
convinced that the story of an alien invasion was truly happening.
We annihilated the world before your very ears tonight, and
utterly destroyed the C. B.S. You will be relieved, I hope, to
learn that we didn't mean it, and that both institutions are
still open for business. So goodbye everybody, and
remember the terrible lesson you learned tonight. That
grinning, glowing, globular invader of your living room is an
inhabitant of the pumpkin patch, and if your doorbell rings
and nobody's there, that was no Martian.. it's Hallowe'en.
Based on the transcript, what was Welles most likely trying to do through his
use of the medium of radio?
A. Judge radio for adding no value to the world
B. Present a message about how trustful people are of media
O C. Explain why a radio station was closing
