Generally reliable sources include those published by most government websites (such as the CDC and the WHO), published by academic experts (such as universities), or published by a news source that has had a long history of reporting facts (like the New York Times). Generally unreliable sources include those where anyone can edit and publish information. This includes wikis like Wikipedia or Fandom, video hosting sites like YouTube or Vimeo, social networking sites like Facebook or Twitter, blogging sites like Tumblr or Reddit, Q&A sites like Quora or Answers. com, and any other site where there is little fact-checking or vetting process for accuracy. Reliability does not equate to credibility or the lack thereof. Wikipedia, despite being a wiki (and thus generally unreliable), is an excellent source of information on topics like mathematics since they have rigorous processes that gets rid of factual errors. On the other hand, Chicago Tribune (a reliable source) once made a mistake and projected the 1948 election for Thomas E. Dewey instead of Harry S. Truman.
