    The correct answer is letter "E": Jasmine loses her job as a newspaper editor because the publication has gone digital.

    Explanation:

    Structural unemployment is an economic mismatch where workers fail to find jobs and employers with available openings fail to find workers. This problem can be caused because of technological advances and the rapid relocation of available job positions.

    In that sense, as Jasmine - a newspaper editor - is laid off because publications are now digital (technological factor), she is being a victim of structural unemployment.
