The website “Pearl Harbor- Mother of All Conspiracies” is the epitome of an effective website for those individuals who believe in a conspiracy surrounding Pearl Harbor. This website, created by the author, Mark Willey, contains an excerpt from the first chapter of his book, Mother of Conspiracies, which is sold online and through Borders Bookstores. There are no sponsors, the date created is not listed, nor is there a notice for when the website was last updated.
Mr. Willey’s website is well written and easy to navigate. However it is not visually appealing and it is somewhat difficult to read due to small print and crowded type. The author’s statements are credible and accurate. He quotes from public documents from the Navy Court of Inquiry, the Army Board Report and the Joint Congressional Committee Report.
Although Mark Willey’s writing is credible, and he utilizes trustworthy sources for his information, the author is biased. He is adamant about there being a conspiracy involving the United States government and Pearl Harbor. Mr. Willey does not speak about both sides of this issue, he only addresses his belief that the United States had plenty of warning that the Japanese would attack Pearl Harbor and they chose to stand by and let the attack happen.

good use of vocab and overall a helpful review-- could return in conclusion to the idea of effectiveness of the site.
Good review, very helpful if were ever want to know more on the topic. Lots of hard words, a little too advanced for my futile mind.
