My project will test the perceived credibility of news sources on YouTube. I have chosen this topic because the information spread on the platform by content creators in this genre tends to not always be consistent. Additionally, I will research the independence and trustworthiness of YouTube news sources in regard to sponsorships and whether or not they are disclosed to viewers. This project is a follow-up to an project I am currently working on with my mentor that is about the credibility of YouTube personalities in general.
