Which of the following is likely to be the most valid source of information about pollution? a. a website supported by manufacturing companies b. an internal report by the environmental protection agency (epa) c. a website supported by environmental groups d. a television news program select the best answer from the choices provided

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

To be a Valid Source of information there must be Zero bias to the topic, and sadly none of the options are safe from a biased source of information:

A manufacturing company will use information that doesn't damage their reputation, Pollution information from these companies is often very simple or the results from the studies are not correctly portrayed.

A website supported by environmental groups is also a biased source, some of them use results of studies not correctly executed or even not scientifically correct.

A television News Program is the most biased information they will only show what they want or are allowed to show, the government having full control of the media makes any information shown on the news susceptible to bias.

On the other Hand and internal report by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would be the best source of information, their scientific reports follow scientific rigor and combined to their reports the information used to make the studies is also shared sometimes, also the people making the reports have a high study degree specific to the topic. It is not excent from any bias due to government interest, but their reports are often the most valid source of information.
