The correct answer is B. Media conveys the problems of common people to the government.

Explanation:

When you use a detail, fact or idea to support a claim the purpose is to explain or prove the claim is valid. This implies, in the case presented an effective supporting statement should explain the importance of media for democracy.

According to this, the best option is "Media conveys the problems of common people to the government" because if media shows people's problems, politicians will consider the needs of people, and therefore this supports democracy or the power of citizens to influence government.
