If an article includes statistics from an official government document that was based on sound reserach, it is reasonable to think the statistics have a high validity. We can have confidence in the reliability of those statistics if they have been accurate over time.
The press secretary for the President of the United States is a valid source of information because the press secretary has official permission to represent the President. We can count on the press secretary as a reliable source if the press secretary's reports are accurate time and time again.
