Give me Wikipedia

Today it is the University of Google that stands accused of purveying the new socialism by offering equality of information.
Let them read books, commands the impressively named Tara Brabazon, of the University of Brighton where she is Professor of Media Studies.

She says that she has banned her own students from using Wikipedia or Google as research sources.
Modern students, say the critics, are being handed unlimited supplies of dubious facts from online sources such as Wikipedia.
