I compare to website about the movie star
Denzel Washington. The first link is from Santa Fe’s library website. Since
this is an academic website, it contains accurate and reliable information. In fact,
his biography has been updated few days ago. The author, the work cited and all
references are accurate in this link. There is no advertising, sponsor, or
political organization that support this webpage so this count as an objective webpage.
The information in this page is totally comprehensive and complete. It is even concludes
Denzel Washington’s address!
On the other hand, the name of the other webpage is gossip so it shows not all information in this webpage have to be true .The ads are all around the page and distract reader from the main subject. There is no work cited, related link to the subject in this link. the main subject on the second link is a factual error which incurrence the webpage completely

Very well analyzed. I agree the site that is from the library database is a very reliable website and well respected. But the other site is not. he ads are a good give away. The lack of sources and information also hint that it is not a great website to collect research from. You did a great job and i agree.
ReplyDeleteThis is great information, the school library is probably one of the best and most reliable sources possible. And yes the other site is a sham, to use this as a source is like using the Inquirer has a legitimate source of information.
ReplyDeleteGreat point. I would like to also add that websites similar to the second one you analyzed exist for entertainment and not particularly biographical information.
