Read 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 than the other facts on the site are also accurate.

·       Study the language used. Is it angry, satiric or overly impassioned? This may indicate that the site  is biased.

·       Considered whether the argument are logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the site present only one point of view.

·       Check the links to the sources that the author acknowledge. Scholarly writing whether in print or online, should include a bibliography.
