Critical analyses of two sites
The internet has all sorts of information in all fields we know about. However, some are correct, relevant, true, and others can not be relied upon. It is therefore significant to have ways of distinguishing them and know which among them you can use. The information in the site can be analyzed through checking their credibility, accuracy, reasonableness and if there is any supportive information towards the site.
