Answer 1

I believe the answer is: A.Selective Perception

Selective Perception could be seen when a person is sticking to one news channel in media who is known to believe and support a certain type of narrative while refusing to listen to opposing point of view. Such person tend to prefers to live in a bubble rather than confronting the possibility that he/she could be wrong.
