The Internet is a great source for up-to-the-minute information and statistics. News events are reported quickly on the Internet from a variety of well-known sources. These media outlets have become a premier source of information on current events worldwide.
Millions of other websites provide information on millions of topics. Because there is no quality control on the Internet, information can be unreliable or inaccurate. Therefore, websites should be examined more critically than other types of information formats. When researching topics on the Internet be sure to critically evaluate the sources you find.
