You need fast, accurate information, so you can act on it right away. Information used to come from established authorities. But with the
coming of the internet, information isn't what it used to be.
These days, anybody can throw up a Web page. The problem is how to know if the information is reliable? Individuals posting
information online aren't required to use traditional editorial rules. Nor is anyone responsible for checking the facts as in newspapers and
magazines.
The result is much online information may not be reliable. It's very easy and unwise to trust information just because it
came out of a computer.
For example, a few years ago the internet was literally flooded with the false rumor that the Proctor and Gamble trademark
had some sort of satanic symbol hidden in it. The rumor grew so large, was so persisitent, and gained so much notoriety that P&G was forced
to deny it publicly.
