Question

your followers have received the video very well. one viewer has left a comment where she claims that the endangered animal statistics that were shared from a scientific journal are incorrect. she posts a link to a video that directly contradicts your source. how can you assess which source is correct: the video or the scientific journal? analyze the sources and their origins to determine if there are any biases, errors, and so on. trust the scientific journal because it supports your viewpoint. trust the video because it was created in 2023, while the scientific journal was published in 2022. ask your followers which source they believe is correct.

Explanation:

To assess source - credibility, one should analyze sources and their origins for biases, errors etc. Trusting a source just because it supports one's viewpoint is subjective. Age of a source is not the sole determinant of its accuracy. Relying on followers' opinions may not be based on expertise.

Answer:

Analyze the sources and their origins to determine if there are any biases, errors, and so on.
