When identifying the author(s) of an article, we examine the provided answer options and compare them to the article's byline.
Option a: 'a. Ethan Nickel' suggests Ethan Nickel authored the piece. If the article’s byline does not list him and there is no evidence within the article attributing authorship to him, this option would be inaccurate.
Option b: 'b. No author mentioned' asserts that no author is named. If the article includes a byline or a named author, this choice would be incorrect. Conversely, if the article truly has no byline, this would be correct, but we should rely on what’s printed in the article.
Option c: 'c. Penny Proud' names Penny Proud as the author. Unless the article credits Penny Proud, this would be incorrect. Misattribution often occurs when readers confuse editors, contributors, or fictional names with the actual byline.
Option d: 'd. McKenzie Funk' identifies McKenzie Funk as the author. If the article’s byline reads McKenzie Funk, this option would be correct; author attribution is typically stated at the top or bottom of the article, and McKenzie Funk is a recognized journalist whose name may appear as the author of some pieces.

In evaluating these choices, recall that the author is the person responsible for writing the article and is usually listed byline-style near the top of the piece. Misreading names or assuming authorship based on topic or publication date can lead to incorrect conclusions. It’s important to check the explicit byline rather than inferring from context or content. If the article’s visible byline matches one of the options, that would determine the correct choice. Otherwise, the option indicating that no author is mentioned would be appropriate only if the article truly lacks any byline or attribution.

To summarize the potential pitfalls:
- Assuming an author without a visible byline leads to guesswork.
- Confusing editors, researchers, or contributors with the main author can cause misattribution.
- A named author in the options should be cross-verified against the article’s actual byline for accuracy.

If the article indeed carries the byline 'McKenzie Funk,' then option d is correct; if not, one of the other options would be the accurate choice based on the article’s stated attribution. The key is to align the chosen option with the explicit author information presented in the piece.
