Read between the lines

Make a judgment about the site reliability based on your own analysis of the site and the information it contains. Here are some ways to do this :

·         Looking 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  the sites are also accurate.

·         Study language used is it angry , satiric or overly impassioned ? this may indication that the site is biased

·         Consider whether the argument are logical and backed up by evidence, and whether the sites present only one point of view

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