The correct answer is: A. no article, no article
The reason is that both “Independent” and “Herald” are common nouns, which do not require an article.
An article is a word that comes before a noun to indicate whether the noun is specific or general. In this case, both “Independent” and “Herald” are general nouns, which means that they can refer to any newspaper of that name. Therefore, we do not need to use an article before either noun.
If we were to use an article, it would change the meaning of the sentence. For example, if we said “I will buy the Independent,” that would mean that we are specifically referring to the newspaper called “The Independent.” However, if we say “I will buy Independent,” that could mean that we are referring to any newspaper called “Independent.”
In conclusion, the correct answer is: A. no article, no article.
