Is The Web a Trusted Source For Health and Finance?

CyberAtlas: Health and Finance Sites Lack Credibility

Not according to this study.

Your money or your life could be in jeopardy if you trust everything you read online, according to an extensive joint global study from Consumers International and Consumer WebWatch on health and finance sites.

The study, conducted between April and July 2002 and led by researchers from 13 countries, assessed more than 460 health and finance Web sites worldwide to determine their overall level of credibility. The findings may make consumers think twice about trusting the information that is available online.

Interesting and cautioning. But, I'd like to see a study that details how accurate offline health and finance sources are.
