Resolved Question: Can u check this out for me please?

I wrote it for my english classes. Could you check if i did not make any mistakes? Thank you so much.. This website is an example of the news web page. It’s not quite clear what company or individual is responsible for the contents of the page. There is only an information that BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites. There is no more data which can tell us who properly is responsible of that. Down of the page there exist a couple of links which describe the goals of the company. We find there also data of the company such as its phone number, textphone, e-mail address and postal address which we can use to contact with it if we have got some questions or complaints. By putting that information bbc company seems to feel responsible for the content of the material. We are able to receive digital TV services and DAB digital radio as well what provides a way of verifying company’s legitimacy. The articles of this website are not undersigned with the names of the individuals who wrote it. There is a statement giving the company’s name as copyright holder. As I could notice there is no clearly listed sources for factual information which I can verify in another source. Website is free of grammatical or spelling or typographical errors however I am not able to read all of the articles to provide it. Moreover the website contains translations in many languages. The informational content is clearly separated from the well labeled advertising and opinion content. I think there is no link which takes me to the informational page which describes how frequently that material is updated. I can only guess that it should be done every day because of the news character of the website. There is also no indication of when the page was last updated. I could not find any information about when the page was placed on the Web. Most of the articles are made in printable versions. Most of those versions include same material. Moreover it consists the date of when was it published. more
