This article is from a reputable magazine which makes it a source that i would trust. Magazines such as Time magazine are known to always give trustworthy and well research content. In this case the content is backed Surveys done by college professors who posted their finding publicly and could face ridicule and in the worst case be fired from their positions if the information was false. As for the usable content in this article is the results that show that students who use facebook have lower gpa's when compared to students who do not use the site. It can help me show how sites such as facebook affect youth by being a source of distraction.
Did you notice that the authors of the report note that they cannot state categorically that Facebook is the cause, it perhaps indicates that these students are more prone to distraction. Another interesting article was referred to that showed that employees who are able to browse online during work time are in fact more productive, giving us reason to suspect that there might be a happy balance able to be achieved!
