There are a lot of ways. First, so that I'm not going over anything you might already know - have you ever had a library information session? If not, I would ask them to schedule one. They have whole programs devoted to reliability. :)
The short version: you figure out if something is reliable by checking the domain and the url. A reputable company will own their own news website. They'll take their own pictures, which you can check with a reverse image search. If they're quoting someone like a professor, look up the professor. Do they have the degree that they said they did?
It's all about fact-checking, and making sure that what someone says is actually true.
text; no worries!!
