The statement professional judgments are used by reporters as they remove a range of distractions and monitor facts best summarizes Bernstein's views

Option-C.

Explanation:

Edward Bernstein is one of the first socialists to try to rethink the principles of Karl-Marx such as the concept of the upcoming collapse of the economy of the capitalist economy and the take-up of power by the proletariat.

Although not a prominent theorist, he considered a kind of cultural democracy which combined private initiative with social reform, called "the father of revisionism.' He favoured socialists to the rather authoritarian German Workers Association, which was democratic and pacifist.
