3. The credentials are that it is from the New York times and it gives authors and publishs date.
4. This site talks about the relationships between China and the United States. They also say Among the highlights of this collection are the detailed (and previously classified) U.S. government accounts of the infamous military assault by the Chinese government on pro-democracy demonstrators in and around Tiananmen Square in Beijing in June 1989.
5. and 6. I believe this because according to this website says that China and the United States had a relationship and that information was told to America so they have evidence this Massacre actually happend and its purpose was for pro democracy.

China's 15-year long news blackout on the Tiananmen Square massacre slipped for a few hours yesterday when People's Daily, the mouthpiece of the Communist party, reported for the first time on its website that the authorities had carried out a "violent crackdown" on pro-democracy
Which tells me that it was an accident that the public got to it and that things are going to start heating up again about the issue of the Tiananmen Square Massacre.
5. and 6. I believe the Tiananmen Square Massacre really happend but I dont believe that it has been fifteen years that the public has not found about about these tapes that where accidentally released because their has been protest every year about the Tiananmes Square Massacre so the issue is still there with the people and the Chinese Government and their policies.

Students were particularly involved in these protests across China, although older Chinese took part as well. Tiananmen Square was the site of several protests during this period, including a student hunger strike. The protests grew larger as word spread, and international media descended upon China to report on the issue. Many people suspected that these mass protests would mark a new era in Chinese history.

In the preceding weeks, China, and Beijing in particular, had witnessed extraordinary events. A student occupation of Tiananmen Square became the focus for a rising working class movement. Independent Workers' Autonomous Federations were active in numbers of cities. From May 20 the movement continued in defiance of martial law and the central government was divided and paralysed.

Compatriots, fellow countrymen who cherish morality, please hear our voices!"
Their hunger strike draws broad public support; many important intellectuals pledge their help.

3. Its credentials are that it has an about us tab and according to the tabs at the bottom this site is from the Washington Post.
4. This site really doesnt have much to say words wise but lots to say picture wise it has protesters by the thousands in a beserker fury for peace and a change in the government I like the picture where it shows them sleeping there I think that shows on how much they wanted change to happen.
5. and 6. I believe this site because according to its rights it is from The Washington Post and the pictures seem to be believeable. What was really interesting is that the crowds where so powerful they were blocking off the army to get to the capital building on May 20, 1989 which I think is crazy but believable.

3. The sites credentials are really nothing because it is wikipedia but it does have an about tab so thats about all of the credit I can give them.
4. The site explains the Tiananmen Square like its history when it was built and the location of it. What I think is interesting is that Tiananmen literally means "Gate of Heavenly Peace" yeah about that they had much violence here in its history. What is the coolest about this website though that no other website has is that I have found is that it has a full picture of the Tiananmen Square which when I look at it it is huge I mean its like a perfect place to protest lots of people can fit and they're are buildings around that are significant and with that protesters can draw attention fast.
5. and 6. I believe the site because the picture that the site has seems to be the most eye catching and it seems to be real and I like the information that they have to say about the name "The Gat of Heavenly Peace". I believe it and I think this image would be a good image to show.

4. The site is mainly a picuture website over pictures I believe are contained on this website. The site is well organized so you can find the pictures from specific dates and all that. What is interesting is that when you look at the pictures it seems that the host of the website was like a reporter in the mix of everything able to get the picures which I think is really cool.
5. and 6. I believe the site because the pictures are very interesting and they are real because the look to be older photographs and for that matter it must be real. You can also see the glare from the flash of the camera.

3. This sites credentials arent really anything because there are mulitple authors also there really isnt that much of credentials information besides an about us tab.
4. Whats interesting about the site is that it has a caualties toll sort of thing and what is also interesting is that they say that there really isnt an actual number of people that were injured of killed in the protest different sites say different things like. On June 4, the government forcefully dissolved the protests. This left many people injured or dead. The exact number is not known today, different people have different numbers. The Chinese government speaks about 200-300 victims, the New York Times says there were between 300 and 800 and the Chinese Red Cross talks about 2,000 - 3,000.
5. and 6. I believe this site because I think it is true many of the other sites dont really talk about the actual casualties they just show picures of interview people about their experiences and so thats why I believe it because it gives me a mixture of information to use in my powerpoint.

3. The credentials are that it has a contact us and an about tab for reference and all that.
4. The site explains when Tiananmen Square was built. Built in 1417, the square is 880 metres south to north and 500 metres east to west. In 1651 (early Qing), the gate was renovated and renamed to its present form. During the Ming and Qing eras, there was no public square at Tiananmen, and instead the area was filled with offices for imperial ministries. These were badly damaged during the Boxer Rebellion and the area was cleared to produce the beginning of Tiananmen Square.
5. and 6. I believe this site because the information that they are giving me is very interesting because no other site talks about in futher detail about when it was made or how large it is according to all of the websites that I have found. I believe that this website is a keeper because I can put the information of the Tianenmen Square on the slide show so I think it is a overall a good site to use.

2. The site is called Encarta MSN
3. Its credentials are that it is from MSN.com in the encyclepedia section so I think that is enough credentials for that.
4. The site says 1989 protest in Beijing, the culmination of a series of student-led pro-democracy demonstrations in China. The events leading up to the Tiananmen Square protest began with the death of Hu Yaobang, a former general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), in April 1989. Hu had become a hero to Chinese liberals after he refused to halt unrest in January 1987. Following Hu’s death, students began peaceful memorial demonstrations in Shanghai, Beijing, and other cities. The memorial escalated into a prodemocracy movement, with protesters demanding the removal of China’s paramount leader Deng Xiaoping and other Communist officials.
5. and 6. I believe the site because it is unique in a way that it explains how it really got to start like what drove the protesters in the first place to going into a frenzy and I think this site would be useful for me to put on the powerpoint to explain how things came about.
