Answer:

They are different sources.

Step-by-step explanation:

An eye witness is a primary source and it is reliable because it saw the events unfolding on first hand, he witnessed it with his own eyes, and in this case primary sources have the raw information, while secondary sources are second hand information that provide information already proccessed like news articles, or research documents onthe events.
