please help ? A student writes an essay about the causes of global warming. Several of the sources she cites to support her argument are written by Arnie Wallace. How can the reader best determine whether these sources are credible? A. Research Wallace to see if he is an authority on global warming. B. See if there is a Wikipedia entry about Arnie Wallace. C. Look online for blogs that also cite Wallace's writing. D. Read additional resources about global warming.
Which do you think it is?
a kinda im confused @Iwanttomakearequest
okay, then let's go through each option. Option D: This is kinda off topic as far as the question is concerned, since reading other resources won't help determine if resources citing Wallace are credible. Option C: This doesn't help for the question at all, since you're trying to figure out if sources citing Wallace are good, more sources citing Wallace won't really help. Option B: This can be somewhat helpful, but not all the time. Wikipedia can be inaccurate. Option A: This is probably the best choice. If Wallace is an authority on global warming, that means sources citing her are likely good.
thank you it was corrected :)
