<p>SOMETHING OF (A) a phenomenon IN (B) the entertainment world, political satirists ARE ADMIRED (C) by conservatives and radicals ALIKE (D). NO ERROR (E)</p>
<p>I need an explanation please..</p>
<p>No error.</p>
<p>I’m assuming that you were confused by answer choice A. I believe “Something of a phenomenon” is correct because it serves as an adjective here; “political satirists” are “something of a phenomenon.” This is like saying people are smart, not “smarts.” Similarly, “something of a…” doesn’t have a plural equivalent.</p>
<p>Thank you so much. Yes, I was confused with A and I couldn’t see it the way you did. Now, I can see it!</p>
