gives more insight on the user.
From this, it can be concluded
that the user was a media activist
with a group called X for a year.
This adds to his credibility as he
most likely has knowledge of the
issues he is posting about.
However, this can also make him
come across as biased, as activists
usually work towards achieving
a certain goal.
Blog: The blog of the uploader
also writes about similar issues as
the other accounts. Therefore, it
adds to the credibility of
knowledge of the user and his
possible bias.
Conclusion: From the information collected, it can be interpreted that the account has a
certain degree of credibility. The videos of the account do not have many views, and there
are only seven of them. However, the topics of the content posted are all similar.
Additionally, other accounts the user has created shed more light on who they are. It was
found that the individual was a media activist, which adds to his credibility. It should be
noted, however, that because of this, the user might be slightly biased. Additionally, care
should be taken to ensure that conclusions are not drawn too quickly; for instance, the full
event may not be depicted in order to present a certain narrative. Ultimately, this means
that analysis of the content itself should determine whether the content is verified or not.

The video depicts a protest by civilians and a
response to it by municipal police forces who
are using riot shields and police batons. On the
riot shields, a logo and the text “Guarda
Municipal” and “Rio” can be found. The logo
and the text suggest that the authority acting
here is the Guarda Municipal of Rio de Janeiro,
which was confirmed by a Google search of the
equipment and logo of the Guarda Municipal
of Rio de Janeiro.
