One source I found about the controversy of genetically engineered food was called The Recombinant DNA Controversy: Where Will Genetic Engineering Lead Us. Its URL is http://www.learning-mind.com/the-recombinant-dna-controversy-where-will-genetic-engineering-lead-us/. This is a .com domain which indicates that the site is commercial, which means it may not be completely reliable. The author is Yiannis, it is not clear whether this is a web name or the author's real name. Either way, the author's qualifications are not shown. The website only shows that it was last updated in 2015; it contains links to references that are related to the article's topic. The purpose of the text appears to be to inform the reader. There are graphics that illustrate the DNA helix, this relates to the article because the article is about genetic engineering. The source does not seem to be biased. Overall, the source seems to be fairly reliable due to its references and unbiased nature.

The second source I looked at was called EU Passes Contreversial GMO Law. Its URL is http://www.dw.com/en/eu-passes-controversial-gmo-food-law/a-18188282. This a .com domain, which means that it is a commercial website. The author is Hernan Romero, his qualifications are not given. The page was last update on 1/13/15. The text is to inform the reader about the EU's new resolution. There are graphics of crops which relate to the genetically modified crops the article is about. The source does not seem to have a position on the subject. The source has links to other articles about European issues. The source seems to be reliable because of its unbiased nature.
