Checking your sources
- Think of who and why they give the information
- Are there any proves supporting that information
- Look for the propaganda technique (bandwagon, scapegoating, assertion, omission, etc.) they might use in the video.
- If it is information on the internet, look for the comments people have made.
- Search for the information on the internet
- Try to look on some credible sources and decide if the information is true
- If you don't find any or little information supporting what you want to know about then the information is wrong or biased
