Selection Criteria	Questions to Ponder	Answer
Reliability	What are the details of this piece of news? Which of these details can be verified in other sources? Could these details be true? Why or why not?	Adamson University won the UAAP Season 80 Cheerdance Competition. This article can be verified if it has the same content with the other articles regarding this matter. This article could be true since it talks about the championship of Adamson University.
Accuracy	Which of these facts are measurable? How were they derived? Was the article written in an objective manner? Is the article written with care?	Adamson University is crowned as the champion in the UAAP Cheerdance Competition is one of the facts that are measurable. It was written in objective manner and with care because since the details were elaborated very well and all of it was related to the topic.
Value	Consider the audience of the article? Who would find this article valuable?	Since the UAAP Competition is a big event and it comprises of different universities which can be found in Metro Manila the audience will be the public. This article is valuable of course for the students who are studying in Adamson University.
Authority	Who wrote the article? How is the author related to the article? What was his source? Are the sources properly cited? What is the reputation of the author? Is he known for some biases?	The article is written by Paolo Del Rosario who is an author in CNN Philippines. He is related to the article in terms of authority. His source was likely somehow his co-workers in CNN Philippines who were in that event and had an interview with the head coach of AdU cheerdance team  or somebody who witnessed the event personally and also had an interview with the coach. The sources were properly cited in the article. The author is known in writing sports related articles in CNN Philippines. I don’t think he is he is not known for being bias
Timeliness	When was the article written? Is it possible that some of the information in the article has changed in time? If yes, would the change have any effect on the conclusion of the article?	The article was written on December 2, 2017 right after the competition.  I don’t think this article will change in time rather it will be updated as time passes by because this was made right after the competition so it may lack information so they need to update it.
