Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet the requisite three evidentiary criteria. The Director had found only one criterion (authorship of scholarly articles) was met. The AAO agreed with the Director's negative finding on the 'membership in associations' criterion and also found the evidence for 'published material about the alien' was insufficient to establish the media outlets qualified as major media.
