Source evaluation

A student essay cites a newspaper opinion column as proof that a university course “has no academic value”. Which response best evaluates that evidence?

  • The column is recent, so it is a reliable academic source.
  • An opinion column can raise a question, but it does not by itself prove the course has no academic value.
  • Newspaper articles are never usable in academic work.
  • The claim is true if the column names a university.
