[Publib] Looking for examples of 'web wolves' in sheep's clothing

[Lise Chlebanowski]

I always liked to use this website when I teach Web site authority classes. It's not a .org site, but fun anyway:

I'm hoping someone out there can help.  I teach a class in web searching for paraprof's & new entry level librarians, and one of the (to me) tired old examples I've used to illustrate the point that .org web sites don't automatically mean a safe authoritative source is the infamous martinlutherking.org site, which as everyone knows has connections to stormfront.org.  

Any fresh ideas for other examples of 'web wolves' in sheep's clothing?
