__TOC__
== Summary ==
There is no consensus on the reliability of TMZ. Although TMZ is cited by reliable sources, most editors consider TMZ a low-quality source and prefer more reliable sources when available. Because TMZ frequently publishes articles based on rumor and speculation without named sources, it is recommended to explicitly [[WP:INTEXT|attribute]] statements to TMZ if used. When TMZ is the only source for a piece of information, consider also whether the information constitutes [[WP:DUE|due or undue weight]], especially when the subject is a [[WP:BLP|living person]].
