C. Interactionist perspective

Explanation:

According to the Interactionist, perspective society is shaped by the different world views that people have. It studies society at a micro-level and focuses on the perspective that people have.

The function of media is to form a base according to which the people of society have a shared understanding of groups of people. The effect media has on the culture of a society is studied in this perspective.

Hence, the question here is referring to the Interactionist perspective.
