time synchronization across domain

Our domain consists of four separate sites with a domain controller at each site. Our workstation
and DC times are synchronized with each other, although they are off of the true correct time by
several minutes. Should I set up each DC at each site to be a trusted source, and set each DC to
synch with the same time server on the internet? Or should I only use a single DC for the entire
domain?

How exactly do I go about doing this? I've searched on MS, but the amount of articles that come up
is enormous, and I find it a bit confusing. Are there any articles that provide a simple
explanation on how to do this?

Thank you.
