Answer 2

A hoax can help to create social change by:

A. By drawing attention to an issue that people might not know about otherwise.

Step-by-step explanation

Thus, getting people's attention to something they might know about otherwise can lead people to a social change because people do not really know about the subject, so they follow what the media says is the "correct way".
