C.R.A.P Test

If you haven't heard of the C.R.A.P. Test, don't worry most haven't.  This is the evaluation process taught to college students when they take basic English Composition classes.  The test evaluates sources and helps prevent crap from appearing in your evidence.  I hope that when you make an argument here and everywhere that you use supporting evidence that passes the C.R.A.P. Test.



Pretty simple, right?  You would think.  Please be honest with yourself and others when presenting your sources because the only thing dumber than not having evidence is trying to pass crap off as evidence.  Remember: polish a turd, it's still a turd and sugarcoating it doesn't make it candy.

I will be discussing the credibility of news sources in depth in a separate post.
