1. Yes - The movie was released recently, and the author tied in personal anecdotes in being able to relate to the plot of the movie. it was also easy to read. 2. Yes - It was written about current television shows watched by young adults and news relating to them. 3. Yes - Although not as interesting and audience-oriented, it was still relevant and written about young adults. It just needed to be written in a more casual and relatable way. 4. Yes - It was similar to the second article: easy to read and relatable to a young audience.

Growing Up Digital -yes, good argument, relevant issue.
Best and Worst -yes, brief but interesting, topic is current and gripping.
Post 1 - We would accept this article because it was pretty well written and the author seemed very knowledgeable about current actors and movies. Post 2 - Yes, because Nita seems versed in what appeared in the media this year and formulates a reasonable opinion on these events. Post 3 - No, it does not fit our call for submissions because it was more of an opinion piece, and the article appears to appeal mostly to college students, not all of the audience. Post 4 - Yes, the references are fewer than in the first two articles, but this one does apply to all of the audience and it's a unique topic.
We would accept the first article on the "No Strings Attached" review. It was about entertainment, and the author had a clear and concise opinion about the movie. He posts in a way that is relevant to college aged audiences.
We would not accept the second article on best and worst moments of 2010 television. It doesn't seem like it is giving any useful information on television. The article seems all around uninteresting and pointless.
We would accept the third article on growing up digital. The article, although a little boring, it seems informative and relevant to the audience.
We would accept the fourth article because because it relates to the interests of the audience, and written in a favorable tone.
No Strings Attached: Yes - This article is a review of a popular movie targeted toward young adults. It could have been improved by talking a little bit more about the movie itself, and not the author's movie-going experience.
Best/Worst TV Moments: Yes - All shows that many teens have either heard of from friends or watched themselves. But it was very opinionated rather than how good the shows were.
Growing up Digital: Yes- Almost every teen or young adult reading this would be able to relate to it. Plus it offers a favorable position on one that is usually an unfavorable one.
Advertising: Yes- Ads young people see when watching favorite shows. Easy to read and interesting.
Example:
