a. when evaluating a source for reliability, if they are talking about a product from a company that sponsors them they may not be honest, or if they are sponsored by a reliable company they can be trusted it depends what way you look at it.

Answer:

A is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to lack of standardization and screening process for documents which are uploaded on world wide web, anyone can put information on internet. it is easy to upload the content which is sponsored and aimed to influence others. Also, a web page may not contain honest opinion.That is why it is important to determine the reliability, currency,objectivity, Authority and other objectives of the website. We scan a web source for heavy sponsorship when evaluating a source of reliability.
