What makes information pure?

(what achieves clarity of information?)

One should evaluate the source of the information to identify whether or not it is reliable or pure.  People or companies with a bad reputation for reporting events containing unreliable information shouldn't be trusted.  However, if the individual or company has a good reputation for reporting events in their true nature, then it further promotes the clarity of the information.

Details

I made this dress in Intro to Textiles last semester for final project.

To make this dress...

First, I dyed the white cloth into a fushia color. Then, I cut out pieces of patterns from the dyed fabric. After, I pinned pieces of fabric together and sewed them. I used one piece of weaving for the center of the dress. After making the dress, I also made lining, which is the inside of the dress. After, I carved bambie onto a rubber block, and printed navy blue bambies on the dress.

Digital Publishing

Where do you find information that you can trust?

Often times, I am able to find reliable information in pieces of literature, including books, magazines, and academic essays.  I find these reliable because I am able to research background information on writers and check their other work to see if it's legit as well.  The news can be very biased at times, whether displayed online or television, so I'm very selective about which sources I obtain my information from.  Stories that display the primary source are often best, as I am able to trace the source and read other articles or information to validate it.  

Where do you get your local news?

The media can be very unreliable, often displaying one-sided views, so I prefer to obtain to my information from an official news website that display primary sources so that I am able to confirm their claims. (Oakland news site)

Why do you trust that source?

That site is trust worthy because many people also get their information from there.

Is it important for you to know what's going on? Why?

The world is constantly changing, whether it takes place in my country, or countries across the seas.  It's always important to know what's going on because there are times in which individuals (locally) are alerted regarding problems or situations that could be potentially harmful.  If I do not watch the news or check online, I would be unaware and not prepared to accompany the battle.
