When doing research about controversial topics, keep the following things in mind:
Article databases house a collection of resources from many different outside sources, such as academic journals, scientific research, newspapers, and magazines.
A search in an article database is much more similar to a typical search engine (like Google), except the results are from a curated list of credible sources.

However, when you are researching a newly emerging topic, these sources may not be as up to date. They may be more useful for more general information related to your topic, such as about technology or ethics.
