    1. Trending

      Here in the trending section, there is a good exhibition of the website being perceivable and understandable. There are sharp contrasting colors between the background and foreground to tell the user that the information in this section is more relevant towards their interests. Therefore, it would be easy to immediately understand what the most prominent news articles are for the user.

    2. World

      I think this would be the most robust section of the website, because it separates each of the news article in distinct themes. This can help improve the navigation for the website and ensure that readers know what kind of information that they are viewing. Anyone using assistive technology would know the overall theme of the articles that they are viewing.

    3. Videos

      This is a poor practice, as none of the videos have closed captioning to help users who may be deaf. There are also no transcriptions being provided for the users so that they would be able to understand the contents of the video. The videos on the website are not accessible to the deaf users who may wish to watch videos.

    4. Latest News Click to read more latest news

      This section makes it easy for a screen reader to help direct the reader, as there are titles and a brief summary of what the article is about. This can help the reader immediately understand the content as it is navigable by a screen reader which many readers may rely on. There are also alt descriptions by examining the HTML code.

    5. Heading out for the May long weekend? Here’s what to expect for gas prices

      The most important headline is presented visually in a bold manner for the reader. The reader is able to gravitate immediately towards the headliner article and they are able to click into it for more detail. This is a good example of an operable interface, where the reader is also able to view a video as well.
