  Modality
- B.
  
  Structural Properties
- C.
  
  Content properties
- D.
  
  Desensitization
Correct Answer
D. Desensitization

Explanation
The given question asks for an exception among the three major predictors of media effects. Modality, structural properties, and content properties are all considered as predictors of media effects because they influence how media messages are perceived and processed by individuals. However, desensitization is not directly related to predicting media effects. Desensitization refers to a reduced emotional response or sensitivity to a particular stimulus over time, which can be a consequence of exposure to certain media content. While desensitization can be an effect of media exposure, it is not considered a predictor in the same way as the other options mentioned.

The Spiral of Silence theory suggests that individuals are less likely to express their opinions if they perceive them to be in the minority, fearing social isolation or backlash. However, the fear of a specific government does not directly relate to this theory, as it focuses more on societal pressure and public opinion.
