No, notat all, google is my best friend. To me it's not any different from an encyclopedia, perhaps even better. As long as the information you're getting is accurate, there's no harm in using it.

I believe its happened some time ago. For many if its written somewhere on the internet its the truth.
Not to mention the complete lack of media literacy of the general media consuming public.
