AAO found the Director's final merits assessment legally deficient for failing to consider the totality of the evidence—it addressed only the judging criterion, contradicted its own step-1 findings, applied step-1 analytical questions at step-2, and offered unexplained conclusions. Remand was required for a proper assessment.

published material in professional or major trade publications or other major media
AAO 为什么未被说服
Some articles were incomplete or lacked required date/author/publication information. Some articles focused on the Petitioner's personal life rather than her work as a singer.
