What is the value of name recognition? |
| Some brand names you can probably trust. The New York Times is a reliable source of information, whether in print or online. |
National Geographic Magazine and Encyclopedia Britannica are reliable sources of online information. We know what these organizations do, so we trust their Web presence.
What does the government do? What is the purpose of government information on the Web? How do you think the CIA's Web pages might be useful?
| The Central Intelligence Agency collects and disseminates important information
about other countries. One resource available on its Web site, The
World Factbook, gives good factual and statistical information on every
country in the world. This is a good source of information on populations,
governments, religions, and so on.
The CIA's World Factbook is one of the most reliable free sources online. |
