Explanation
A corporate merger introduces new stakeholders, changes existing stakeholder roles, and shifts priorities and requirements. When stakeholder requirements change, the project manager must reassess who needs to be communicated with, what information they need, how they prefer to receive it, and at what frequency - directly impacting communication methods. Options A (issue log updates) and D (WBS updates) are internal project artifacts that may be affected by the merger but do not directly drive changes to communication methods. Option B (increase in change requests) reflects scope impact, not communication method selection. Stakeholder changes from a merger are the root cause that cascades into revised communication planning.
