Mostly it depends on what you need a source for. I will assume you need it for a report of some sort due to the category. First thing to consider is your subject matter. If your subject is politics than use a source that is known for its subject matter to be politics. If it is a persuasive essay or discussion, then make sure the author of the source is in agreement with your opinion or idea of the subject matter. You can almost always trust anything from a library to be a trusted source, and major publications. You'll want your source to represent a large majority of readers, by which I mean to use time magazine and not your local penny pincher magazine. I think I need more detail in the question to really help you and make sure this is completely answered, but there you go.

check to see if the author is well known (ex national geographic) and all websites that end in .gov are also trustworthy. You could also check another source to see if the information matches...
