Evaluating News and Magazines

Leanings of Magazines and Newspapers
"This is a tool to assist you in determining what bias or leanings a magazine or newspaper may have."
Does the Source Have Slant, Ideaology, or Bias?
"Recognizing bias, the predisposition or tendency that distorts the ability to fairly weigh evidence, can be difficult. These resources show the differing perspectives and biases of news stories and how we consume them."

Google Scholar

Google Scholar has all the power (and problems) of Google, but only searches the educational materials in Google. There are diamonds amongst the dirt out there, so it is worth searching. But don't be surprised if the fulltext is not available and you are asked to pay for content. Don't, we can get it for you free via Interlibrary Loan.
