I am saying this because my teacher said I should not cite Republic, but the news I cited was actually by a news agency and published by both NDTV and Republic. I cited Republic as it came up earlier on Google search.
Rather cite journals, books etc.
Are these legit posts or posted by LegallyIndia for more drama and engagement?
Yes ,why not
Newspapers or their digital counterparts anyway carry a very miniscule credibility for academic purposes. It's not determined on some hard and fast rule but kind of a prejudice among the academic corridors to discard such sources. YOU CAN NOT USE Republic or Zee as your sources, these are very well and commonly accepted propaganda platforms. A common man can debunk their bs masquerading as news of some sort. It would be pathetic that you're onto using something like that in academic setups. A prof would be pissed off if he/she sees such practice among his/her students. Its also kind of a disrespect to serve an academician having years of experience with bs written by these below average clowns backing your work.
