1. A system, comprising:
a memory for storing instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the instructions, and based on the executed instructions, the processor is further configured to:
identify a tag in a media content of a media stream based on a user-attribute of a client device;
identify a candidate time-period in a playback duration of the media content based on the identified tag in the media content;
present an overlay-graphic item corresponding to the identified tag at the candidate time-period in the media content based on a degree of correlation between the identified tag in the media content and a corresponding context for the media content at the candidate time-period; and
transmit a selection request to a media presentation and distribution system for selection of the candidate time-period in the media content,
wherein the candidate time-period is selected based on the tag at a specified time in the media content.
