Examining the credibility of a source

Perspective  My Notes My Notes
My article Article 5 – You tube video from Top10! Article 1 – Google search
Who is the author?

 Where does this information come from?

A youtube channel called Top10. Lot’s of websites from across google.
Does the author/organization have any biases that may influence what they chose to include? Probably not. There was no bias.
Who is the audience? 

Is the audience likely to think this source is credible? 

Anyone who watches lots of chemistry videos because it would appear in their recommended videos.

I don’t think that is very credible because we don’t actually know who got the info and where.

The audience is anyone who searches it.
What makes this source reliable? Why might you trust this information? People might think that it is a reliable source because it sounds official even though it’s not. It’s from lots of different people across the internet.
