Media Literacy?

In this day and age, too many people rely solely on the internet, and electronics.  The problem is not relying on such media, the problem lies in being able to interpret the messages being sent.  In the article, a study showed that two thirds of American adults didn't know the difference between paid and unpaid search results.  If we cannot tell what a reliable source is we will not find credible information.  If we don't have accurate information, we will not be able to make informed decisions.  A study at my high school a few years ago found that over half of the students didn't know what the suffix on the web address meant.  For example, sites ending with .edu or .gov are the best place to look for new scientific discoveries.  .edu is and educational institute and .gov is the government.  All the information at our fingertips is great, but we need to be able to determine the credibility of the information presented.
