D6HW6 Source Eval

Getting a bit of deja vu here.

I decided to perform this eval on one of my sources I found on CQ Researcher. It is an article titled, "The United Nations and Global Security." My first step, evaluating the credibility of the sponsoring organization, is fairly simple. I'm reading a journal article I found on CQ Researcher which is two big positive points in favor of credibility. The article is essentially a research paper in itself and is extremely thorough and detailed and it is backed up by information I have heard in many other places. It has a bibliography a mile long. It's also well rounded and features opinions on both sides of the argument so it checks out, in my opinion, in terms of information accuracy. The source was written in 2004 and is primarily an article on the U.N. and it's abilities, strengths, and failures. The information contained in it is up to date and very pertinent to it's subject matter even if it wasn't written yesterday. The author, David Masci, is essentially a researcher and writer for CQ researcher. He has written an enourmous amount of articles on many different subjects and a great deal on the Middle East in particular. All in all I think this is a very credible source that will serve me well in my research efforts.
