In essence, mainstream news sources should be evaluated just as much as independent news sources because they are just as liable to mislead and misinform as independent news sources, but they are always take at face value since people see them as more serious and as believable sources of information.

Explanation:

Mainstream news sources, such as the New York Times, or The Wall Street Journal, have built a reputation as sources of believable and reliable information through the establishment of processes of quality control. On the other hand, we have what is known as alternative media, or independent media, which is usually a small group of people, who can, or may not always be, journalists, who deliver information with a certain purpose, and are not always reliable or objective, and their quality processes are not the best. A lot of misinformation can come from alternative sources. However, what has recently been seen is that this is not always the case, that there have been instances in which mainstream news feeds have misinformed the public, while alternative sources have become more reliable and objective, but people never question mainstream sources because it has never been seen as a need. This is why it is necessary to perform more evaluations on mainstream media, just as it is done on alternative media.

Answer from: Quest

in the line from the end of the story "the cask of the amontillado," by edgar allan poe, the narrator has put the last stone on the wall, thus sentencing fortunato to death. just like that montresor associates his feeling of sickness to the humidity of the catacombs, and seems to be glad he has taken revenge on fortunato. however, montresor's last words are "in pace requiescat," which mean "may he rest in peace." as a result, it can be inferred that he hides or does not want to assume his guilt or remorse for killing fortunato in such a horrible way.

Select the contred text in the passage which sentence in this excerpt from john galsworthy's narrative essay "gone" reflects his view that there is no afterlife? an old woman and mrs. herd's sister were in the sitting-room, they showed us to the crazy, narrow stairway. though we lived distant but four hundred yards of a crows flight, we had never seen mrs. herd before, for that is the way of things in this land of minding one's own business a slight dark girlish-looking woman, almost quite refined away, and with those eyes of the dying, where the spirit is coming through, as it only does when it knows that al is over except just the passing. she lay in a double bed with clean white sheets. a white-washed room, so low that the ceiling almost touched our heads, some flowers in a bow, the small lattice window open. though it was hot in there, it was better far than the rooms of most families in towns, living on a wage of twice as much, for here was no sign of defeat in decency or cleanliness. in her face, as in poor herd's, was that same strange minging of resigned despair and almost eager appeal, so terrible to disappoint. yet, trying not to disappoint it, one felt guilty of treachery: what was the good, the kindness in making this poor bird flutter still with hope against the bars, when fast prison had so surely closed in round her? but what else could we do? we could not give her those glib assurances that naive souls make so easily to others concerning their after state. and the night was so beautiful, so utterly glamourously beautiful, with its star-flowers, and its silence and its trees clothed in moonlight. all was tranquil as a dream of sleep. but it was long before our hearts wandering with poor herd, would let us remember that she had slipped away into so beautiful a dream
