Research Tips:
 

Research Tips:
 

  1. Check the date - In most cases, you want up-to-date information.
  2. Consider the source - Read up on the source before you trust the information. Check Snopes to see if the story has been reported as false. Check for bias in the author/source.
  3. Check the author - What are their credentials? Do a quick Google search to see if the author is legitimate. 
  4. Trace the image. TinEye and Google Images can both reverse image search to find out exactly where an image came from.
