true/false: humanitarian needs are not addressed by nongovernmental organizations (ngos).
true
false

Explanation:

• Question 9: Media literacy and audience - message interaction theories suggest that individuals can analyze media messages. So the statement "The standard suggests that individuals cannot discern the unique purposes behind media messages" is false.
• Question 10: Understanding different perspectives helps in having respectful and informed debates. Limiting understanding (Option 2), enforcing one's own view (Option 3), and avoiding discussion (Option 4) are not positive or valid reasons for understanding different perspectives.
• Question 11: NGOs are actively involved in addressing humanitarian needs, such as providing aid in disaster - stricken areas, working on poverty alleviation, etc. So the statement "Humanitarian needs are not addressed by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs)" is false.

Answer:

• 9. False
