All of the questions you listed can help determine a media source's general intent. However, if you are looking for one example that encapsulates the intent of a media source effectively, you might choose:
"Is the purpose of the source to get me to agree with a certain point of view?"
This question directly addresses the persuasive intent of the media, which is a common aim of many sources.
