Frank TALKER has two basic assessment criteria:
</p><ol class="ol" title="Ordered list…">
<li class="li" title="List item…">Is it Good; ie, does Execution match Intention? &,</li>
<li class="li" title="List item…">is it Entertaining; ie, is it boring because Form and Content do not complement each other?</li>
</ol>
<p></p>
<p class="p" title="Paragraph…">
Moreover, any assessed work should strive to balance the following by:
</p><ol class="ol" title="Ordered list…">
<li class="li" title="List item…">Educating;</li>
<li class="li" title="List item…">Informing; &,</li>
<li class="li" title="List item…">Entertaining.</li>
</ol>

Because <a class="a" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_media" tabindex="0" target="_top" title="Mass media…" type="text/html">media</a> products also exist in the world outside of our heads, Frank TALKER analyzes them within the social context in which they are produced and used. He looks at what is going on in the culture within which such words & images are circulating.

As with people in real life, Frank TALKER judges works by the known standards of their creators. Therefore, he only criticizes something for being what it is - insofar as he can perceive what something is.
