Hi
This is a 'media literacy' question isn't it, about how people develop their critical skills to be able to evaluate what they find in all forms of media? Most of the research I've seen so far shows that young people in particular are overtrusting of what they find on the web. We need programmes that develop these skills alongside those taught around tv, newspapers, for instance.
I'm currently working on a European project called Mediappro which aims to develop these kinds of interventions for young people.
