Research papers are a part of every student’s life. Some students may like the research papers but the others may not.

I believe that many people are getting annoyed with this as well. As Zembic said near the beginning of his article “I'd like to pick up a newspaper or magazine feeling confident in what I'm reading is trustworthy news or information that isn't bundled with a marketing scheme.” I think this was said to give people a voice and let's them know that they are part of a large group that do not appreciate these hidden gimmicks in the articles we read daily.
In order to prevent the perpetuation of misinformation the reader must be able to identify bias in media. For example, “Stephon Clarkson” is essentially neutral death provides the author’s personal opinion why the cops should be charged for this. Source A offers a neutral view about his death and also bais because different sources say he was shot 20 times or 8 times or 10 times. Source B offers a slight bias by only including authoritative quotes from one side, Each analysis of this occasion has different perspective and pros and cons.

Background: Ever since the presidency of Harry Truman, we have been constantly involved in foreign conflicts due to fear of the spread of communism. As a consequence of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, Korea was divided into two governments. During Mr. Truman’s presidency, the spread of communism was increasing in tension due to the North Korean invasion of South Korea. The United States believed that it was not in its best interests to let Korea fall to communist power. As a result, the U.S. joined the war in efforts to stop the downfall of South Korea. The north koreans received aid from communist China and the war went on until the Korean Armistice Agreement was signed. This agreement set up a demilitarized zone
All newspaper articles have an author and all authors are human, just like the rest of the people in this world, so they are bound to have an opinion. Therefore the presence of bias, even in the most credible of sources, is inevitable For example, in one article about the repeal of Obamacare it will go on and on about how the repeal is great for those with pre-existing conditions. On another hand other article will be extremely against the repeal because it’s going to really hurt those with pre-existing conditions. Another example, would be the story of the doctor being dragged off a United Airlines plane. Some newspaper will just tell you the fact that he was dragged off the plane in a brutal way and some newspapers will tell you how he was escorted off and then snuck back onto the plane and then resisted to leave the second time he was asked to leave. If someone only hears

At the bottom of the article there was a little tiny thing that said it was approved by doctors so that means doctors use that information and what is the point of making a an entire fake article and have actual doctors use it. There is no
The internet is a quick and easy way to get information; a simple search will bring up endless amounts of information. The problem with having all sorts of information available is that it makes it hard to know if the information truly is credible. The most credible websites are government and university sites and those end with .gov and .edu.

Sites that end with .com and .org do not always contain bad information, but may not be as helpful as the government or university sites.

A source is the place or resource in which knowledge has been obtained. When looking for sources to use in a research paper you need to be able to determine whether or not a source is reliable and credible. It is important to use reliable and credible sources so that the information you use in a document you are writing is accurate and will not affect you in a negative way, by either getting a bad grade in school or just looking unintelligent to a colleague.
The overview of the subject matter is that the big worry is that quality will decline Journalists are employed to check their facts and they get checked in turn by editors who question the reliability of their sources; we trust the paper’s brand not the individual journalist. Social media could be reliable, but how would we know? This is equally true then it comes to bias. But the fact of the matter is journalism is more credible and if we lose credibility in the information we get everything could fall for speculation. The authors’ thesis is we should not stand for the decline of journalism as a profession but support our right to have valuable information
Goodwill to me, had always been the willingness to help others. I think of the Goodwill store, there to supply for the less fortunate. My thoughts weren’t far off from the actual definitions.
