Which statement about PSAs is true?

• A. They are free, that's how we stay nonprofit
• B. They require paid subscriptions
• C. They are restricted to certain hours
• D. They are available only to donors

Answer: (A)

Public Service Announcements are meant to reach broad audiences to inform and educate the public, so they’re provided free of charge to broadcasters and organizations. This free distribution helps nonprofits maximize the message’s reach without barriers, aligning with their mission to inform rather than sell. Subscriptions, limiting hours, or restricting access to donors would impede widespread awareness, which is why those ideas don’t fit.
