"Are All Infomation Reliable?"

There are tons of infomation in the internet, just tons, but keep this in mind, not all are reliable. How can you be sure that the infomation is true and is not a spoof or lie? Sometimes, when you're finding this infomation and you've searched in many websites but none of them match, that is because some of them maybe is providing you with incorrect infomation.
To give you a better idea of what I'm saying, let's compare Wikipedia to VOA. I think that everyone knows Wiki but just in case, VOA, Voice of America, is a website that provides news and infomation from around the world. Let's talk about Wiki first, anyone can update anything in Wiki, I can even make up a story about a shipwreak in Hawaii if I want, but I'm not going to though. The infomation is likely to be incorrect so Wiki is not a website you can trust. VOA is one of the most trusted sources for news and infomation, only the perfessionals or creater can be able to update so it can assure us that we will and can receive true and reliable infomation. VOA is also a very useful source to use.
