Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Meeting with MADD representatives shows a willingness to listen to their concerns and can potentially lead to finding a solution that satisfies both parties. Running an advertisement or holding a press conference may not be enough to address MADD's concerns, and denouncing the group's demands on Twitter may only escalate the situation.
