Reliable sources / Kim Yoon(김윤)

Summary

The above article tells us about reliable sources.
First of all, the word "source" can be defined by three concepts: the work itself, the author of the work (writer, journalist), and the publisher of the work. In order for any material to become a 'trusted material', its reliability must be proved through other authoritative scholars, authors, academic papers and many reviews. This reliability increases as more people read, strictly investigate, and confirm facts.
Whether the source is reliable or not depends on the review procedure, use area and context. For example, in academic fields where new hypotheses are frequently proven and are often replaced by new-generation words, old data can be unreliable. This is because the relevant basis or data is continuously updated. On the other hand, in some areas other than academic, too recent data may be of no use. This is because the amount of information is small and may not be detailed. Therefore, the source we need depends on what field we need it in.
On the other hand, trying to find the source in the news also requires the right judgment. There are various types of news stories, including fact-based articles, editorials and comments. The more authoritative newspapers are, the more reliable they are. In the case of comments, the author must demonstrate reliability. Those who use the source should look at whether news articles have been proven through proper institutions and procedures, or have been scraped by Wikipedia.
Suspicious sources that have a bad reputation in the fact-checking process or that have been overlooked in the editing process can be considered unreliable. In addition, sources advertised by individuals or industries are also examples of doubt. It is highly likely that this data is unreliable even if it is an expert-made webpage, book or comment that can be found on Twitter or blogs.

Interesting

In a modern society where fake news is rampant, I did not know exactly how to distinguish it by field, but it was beneficial and interesting to know how to identify it through this article. It is very unfortunate and should be avoided to read the article without even knowing that fake news is fake news and use it as the basis for one's own writing. If we continue to fall into a 'confirmation bias' trap, some individuals, media companies and organizations will continue to create low-quality sources. We have to be the 'main body' of information and identify unreliable sources.

Discussion
