During our course of English 102, we received the task to analyse a website to try to find out if it is reliable or not. To do so, we were given some questions to ask ourselves during the analyses. The website we decided to analyse is called “Truth about the Belgium” and has been created by a man named Lyle Zapato.
First of all, we began by seraching some information about thye author of the site, which has his name written in the top of the website. We didn’t manage to find anything really relevant about this author. We even found a site that was describing him like an “advanced level paranoid”. Could we really trust a website written by a paranoid?
The website gives information about the Belgium. The author himself affirms we have been told lies for a long time about the existence of the Beligum. The website has been uptaded for the last tiem on August 31st of the year 2008. This way, we can see the website is still kind of active, at least.
The main goal of the author by creating this website was to inform people. He wanted to share with the user his own idea of the Belgium, which he thinks have never existed at all. “Belgium is, and has always been, a leftist ruse; a device applied to propagate the Liberal agenda throughout the world.” Ths sentence shows clearly his opinion about the Belgium and is used as the introduction to what kind of information will be given on this website. We cannot be sure that information is false since we would have to do a research about the Belgium too. But after reading the profile of the author, I think we can be a little skeptical about the information given on this website.
