Consider the following statements:
Assertion (A): A house journal is not a periodical publication which tries to establish regular communication between an organization and its internal and external publics.
Reason (R): A house journal creates a sense of belongingness among its internal public.
(A) Both (A) and (R) are true
(B) Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(C) (A) is true, but (R) is false
(D) (A) is false, but (R) is true
Correct Ans: (B)
Explanation :
Assertion (A) is false because a house journal is indeed a periodical publication aimed at maintaining regular communication between an organization and its internal and external publics. Reason (R) is true because house journals effectively create a sense of belongingness among internal publics by fostering engagement and sharing relevant updates. Although both statements may seem related, the correct explanation of a house journal’s purpose invalidates the assertion in this context.
