00:46

this one's pretty straight forward All we have to do

00:48

is figure out which of these sources is the most

00:50

legit We need to cross out choice a fast before

00:53

any of our college professors catch us even considering it

00:56

Wikipedia and they have good intentions but we never know

00:59

if the article reading is written by a super genius

01:02

01:05

super genius trolls out there but the way the best

01:08

of nonsense to find anything that's Actually accurate Option c

01:30

looks really good A scholarly article is about as reliable

01:33

as it gets unless the scholar in the herd of

01:37

editors that approve the article are totally incompetent Thiss kind

01:40

of publication is usually a great source for any essay

01:43

Oh but wait Choice He breaks out a whole book

01:47

which has a lot of room for more detailed information

01:50

while more information than just one measly article be also

01:54

specifies that the book is written by an expert on

01:56

this french revolution and the reign of terror So we

01:59

know this book is going to be about as accurate
