Accuracy-  It's very biased towards the point of view of bad government. However it does give an accurate survey with a decent sample size.
Authority: the author give no credentials.
Currency: It is current since it was published September 6, 206

Purpose: As a public record of employment and wages in the United States
Accuracy: Any sources that provide information relating to this relies on the BLS as their primary source of information.
Authority: It is by the government and consists of entirely public records. Government records are legally required to be accurate. In addition, they gain nothing from inaccuracy except for a loss of trust.
Currency: May of 2016 - certainly current for financial details as these normally take time to process
Design: Designed well, very simply yet clean.

Design: This website is function over aesthetics and definitely gets the information across. ]]> 2017-10-04 13:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193835837 https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193836085 9/10

Purpose: To give the public access to analysis of statistics about wages and jobs

Authority - The agency is part of the government and is legally required to be accurate. There is no bias so they don't gain anything by being inaccurate.

Purpose: Vaccines cause autism because her children got autism after getting vaccinated.

Accuracy:  Snopes.com declared the article stating vaccines raising autism levels by 340% false.

Authority:  it was made by a mother on a free lance blog post

Currency: Made in 2014, so facts could have changed.

Design: The website has lots of propaganda talking about refusing vaccinations for autism.]]> 2017-10-04 13:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193837433 harrisat https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193837929 2017-10-04 13:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193837929 https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193838746 1/10

 Purpose: This website was made to sell people Havidol for  DSACDAD.

Purpose: To describe results of a survey in which the government was viewed as being too large in size
Accuracy: Unprovable. The paper it is based off of is a policy analysis and an opinion poll with few details.
Authority: Questionable. Cato Institute is a Libertarian think tank, and while it is generally regarded as a good think tank, it is Libertarian, who supports small government to a drastic extent. Thus, having a study saying it's too large seems sketchy.
Currency: July 25, 2015. Somewhat old, especially because opinion polls can heavily change over time
Design: elegant and elaborate; does not deface the overall credibility]]> 2017-10-04 13:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193839399 https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193839774 Dylan Sachs

Information about this medicine can only be found on the HAVIDOL website. The only other information about it is that it is a fake drug and is used to treat a fake illness, (Reuters).

Accuracy/Credibility: This web-article was created by a bunch of parents who wanted to raise awareness about vaccines and autism. Most evidence comes from personal experiences which hold bias and only a small amount of credibility, and it seems like the parents are trying to blame a well-qualified procedure with false evidence.

The purpose was to ridicule a side of the debate in order to make a point. Because the person is anonymous they have practically no authority.

Purpose:
to prove the army's football team is  kneeling during the national anthem
Accuracy:
When the national anthem starts at the beginning of the game the football team can't go all the way to the touchdown zone, so in turn they weren't kneeling during the national anthem, even if they were kneeling]]> 2017-10-04 13:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193847064 https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193847440 0/10

The website has the phrase "right-wing" in it. It uses personal opinions, has absolutely no facts, statistics, or evidence, and shows so much ignorance in every possible statement without showing anything but contempt for logic and reason. Poor website design doesn't help, poor writing skills detract, generally a poor article (that also contains some fairly illegitimate opinions). It is a white man saying that black people do not face any inequality at all, and even before this becomes an abhorrent moral argument and a horrible ethical debate, it has no credibility to begin with.]]> 2017-10-04 13:34:24 UTC https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193847440 https://padlet.com/harrisat/c7difmht11dj/wish/193848871 Ali

Accuracy/Credibility: This source contains a considerable amount of bias. The author is a economist and is a very credible man, but the stance that you take will always leak into your writing. This text was written to inform people and be a database for how the government is getting too powerful. The info comes from NextGov, which is a questionable source.
