Research Journal Part 9: Evaluating Information

1. Google

     a) utilized AND to connect Internet and censorship with the limiter .gov

     b)United States.Department of State. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton Address on Internet          Freedom. Office of the Spokesman,21 Jan 2010. Web. 18 Jun 2012.

     c) This is relevant and real, based on the authority of the US Gov,the purpose of getting the info out and the fact that,while it is her words and views, it has the correct information, because the last thing a career pol wants it to be wrong in public.

2. Google

     a) Used internet (government AND censorship) with the limiter .edu

     b) "Survey of Government Internet Filtering Practices Indicates Increasing Internet Censorship."Berkman Center for Internet and Society.Harvard University, 18 May 2007. Web !8 Jun 2012

     c) This is relevant and real, based on the assumed authority of the reputation of Harvard School of Law at Harvard University. Deals with research concerning the increased censership of the internet in 41 diferent countries.  It is furthers validated with the backing of four leading global universities: Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard, and Toronto 

3. Google.

     b)Edwards, Scott. "Google, the Benevolent Behemoth?"Human Rights Now Blog.Amnesty International, 18 Jun 2012. Web. 18 Jun 2012

     c) This is a good update on how Google is tracking internet censorship internationally.  Its authority is the backing of the Global Giant in world advocacy, Amnesty International. Of course, it will be slanted, they have an agenda, but that in its self help validate the site as well as the blog.

4. Goggle (I'm having tons of luck with Google....)

     a). Internet (censorship AND government AND international) with the limiter .com

     b) Wines, Michael. "Google to Alert Users to Chinese Censorship."The New York Times. The New York Times Company, 6.1 (2012) n. pag. Web. 18 Jun 2012

     c) In this article it actually talks about how Google is getting around Chinese censorship with an alert telling users in mainland china if their search words will cause governmental censorship to disconnect the user arbitrarily from Google's website, thus allowing "work arounds" to the stringent censorship laws of mainland China. I'm sorry, :-) this article just tickles the little man inside me that loves to thumb his nose at "the man"

Honestly I think all four of the top level domains have relevancy when searching mu topic. It is up to me as the researcher to sift through and kind the kernels of needed info while doing so.....
