I believe that social media has improved the accessibility
of information and, but not the quality. It is easier for people to find news
stories and information thanks to the internet and social media sites, but
because so many people can post whatever they want the information may not be
accurate. Wikipedia is an example of a site that allows people to publish
information. They can out whatever they want into their article which makes the
source unreliable. I think that newspapers, books, or television news
broadcasts are still the most reliable sources for news and information because
they are reported by professionals and are checked before they are broadcasted
to the public.
Reviews posted on blogs or in comments on articles
can help lend a personal approach to information. For example, if someone
comments on a review for a restaurant saying it was a terrible experience,
their opinion can help you decide whether or not to avoid this restaurant.
