Answer:

C. The source's creator could personally benefit from convincing

people to accept his argument.

Step-by-step explanation:

A creator that can benefit personally form convincing the audience to believe his argument is the one that most likely would be influenced into making a biased source, for example a scientist that is investing on a new medicine, is more likely to speak only the positive things about that medicine contrary to someone that is only researching it.
