There was a great scene in an American Dad episode where Stan wonders aloud, [See quote below], which was a swipe at Wikipedia. I wish Amazon wouldn't use that site at all.

ETA: Here is Stan's actual quote: "If only there was a place where you could make any outrageous claim you want with absolutely no proof and millions of people will accept it as fact." He was referring to Wikipedia of course.
