Why are these sources of lower quality?
Learning Objective: To scrutinize and categorize "bad" information resources according to type.
On the Internet, in the Library, or through GALILEO find one of each of the following:
- An unreliable source
- A source that reveals bias
- A source that uses emotional language
For each source, document:

- How and where you found it
- The category into which the example fits (unreliable, bias, emotional language) and explain why you think it is an example of that category.
Submit your work in to your instructor if required.
