There are many ways to evaluate sources! Sometimes an easy-to-remember acronym is a good place to start. CRAAP is a popular one, but we've listed a few others to explore!

No matter which method you use, always remember that context matters.

Some of our top tips for evaluating source credibility are:

• Read laterally (look for other coverage/information on the same topic/event)
• Explore your sources (what have others said about them? what credentials do the authors have? etc.)
• Look for primary sources (where did the information first get reported?)
