We hope that the self-directed learning activity has helped you further develop a more nuanced and complete perspective on the credibility of the assessed pieces. Now, ask yourself:
What we are trying to highlight here are the context of your information needs as well as the sliding scale of credibility. If you are writing an academic research paper, you probably don’t want to cite them. Instead, a better choice might be citing the official and original releases. On the other hand, if you just want to share the fun stories with your friends, it would be fine as long as the claims have been verified to be true.
