- commoner 7y agoAnonymous sources are an essential part of journalism, and Reuters is reputable enough to use them responsibly. > The weakest sources are those whose names we cannot publish. Reuters uses anonymous sources when we believe they are providing accurate, reliable and newsworthy information that we could not obtain any other way.
