**In one or two sentences, defend your choice for the #1 site related to the criteria you were assigned:** We feel that Dino Buzz is the #1 site out of the five choices because it had informative and credible content. It didn't push an opinion on the readers. It was really user friendly. We would not include any of these sites in our bibliography because they are all fake.
