The most popular way of verifying unconfirmed facts, rumors, and unproven assertions by anyone. If it's in Google, then it might have merit. Although, it should be noted that reading the actual articles is completely different from just reading the search results and webpage titles, so the facts might still remain unconfirmed.
I just Google-and-confirmed it, the search results say that Justin Bieber is, as a matter of fact, gay.

Groupie Fan Girl: No way! You just checked the search results and didn't read the articles, it's not true!
