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:
Ø Look for facts you know or can check
with a trusted source. If the site gets those facts right, it’s more likely
that the other facts on the site are also accurate.
Ø Study the language used. Is it
angry, satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site is
biased.
Ø Consider whether the arguments are
logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site presents only one point
of view.
