I have no real way to measure the veracity of the sources of "public information" other than to source as carefully as possible from the information at hand, and quote from those sources.

Otherwise I generally hesitate to articulate for fear that I may deviate from the true course of rectitude.

Your comments lend credence towards further investigation into the organizations that were quoted.
Thank you for sharing your personal experience within the subject matter at hand.

What would you suggest might be worthy of further investigation when looking into the respective organizations quoted within my text?
