* PURPOSE: Ask yourself: 'Is the news item primarily to inform or entertain? Is it trying to sell or support something?
* TONE: When the tone of a news item is angry, spiteful, or highly critical, it suggests that an attack is underway and not a reasoned argument.
* CONSISTENCY: Are the facts consistent with those in other articles or reports? If stories contradict one another, be careful!
