Prompt:
Using what you learned from The Curious Researcher Ch.2, pick two websites from below and evaluate their credibility in two separate paragraphs. Look for authorship, bias, sources, slant, funding, alliances, etc.

Response:
In the "Daily Kos" link, credibility can be evaluated pretty easily. For starts, the author doesn't just have one article, he has quite a few. Also, the author is pretty unbiased. He doesn't take sides but rather just talks about what is happening and not just about how he feels on what happened. 

On the other hand, the "Pharyngula" link might not be as credible. Right away you notice the author's profile picture. It is a shirtless cartoon that is not very professional. Another thing that is very noticeable is the author's style of writing. His writing is not very professional either. The language that he uses is too casual for the writings to be taken seriously.
