Between the Lines
Make a judgment about the site’s reliability
based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here
are some ways to do this:
·
Look for facts you know or can check
with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely
that other facts on the site are also accurate.
·
Study the language used. Is it angry,
satiric, or overly impassioned? This may indicate that this site is biased.
·
Consider whether the arguments are
logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point
of view.
·
Check the links to the sources that the
author acknowledges. Scholarly writing, whether in print or online, should
include bibliography
