Credible Sources

It is very important to make sure you are getting your information from a credible source for your speech. If you are given the wrong information and then portray that to other people, you are then both misinformed and in turn it can effect more people. A good example of a non-credible source is Wikipedia. Wikipedia isn't a safe place to get factual information because it's a database that allows anyone to make random posts that may or may not be verified. There is also no way to ensure that they have. A good way to be sure that you're finding credible information is that all of your work is cited back to a credible source and everything cross references well.
