From Wikipedia: Snopes
aims to debunk or confirm widely spread urban legends. The site is often
referenced by news media and other sites, including CNN,[6] FOX news,[7]
and MSNBC.[8]
The site is so comprehensive that leading folklorist Jan Harold Brunvand has cited it as a reason
why he has never created a website of his own.[5] Snopes
directs people to more information about various hoaxes, especially in regard
to chain
e-mails. Although they research their topics heavily and provide references
when possible, not all of their sources (especially those which are personal
interviews, phone calls, or e-mails) are fully verifiable. Where appropriate,
pages are generally marked "undetermined" or "unverifiable"
if the Mikkelsons feel there is not enough evidence to either support or
disprove a given claim. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snopes Naomi An admirer of Snopes. |
