1. The steps I would take to determine if Elefant is a reliable source would be look up any of her past articles and see their content. Also I wound try my best see if she works a regular journalist or instructor, or if journalism is just a hobby of her's.
2. I cannot tell if exactly if she is respected in her field. While some reactions to her article are questionable, others seem ecstatic and agree with her completely. But over all the reactions to article seem lukewarm.
3. The article seems to be written for people who are unaware of its content. The essay goes through explaining the situation in a good amount of detail. Because the article is so descriptive, it makes it seem like it was written for the unaware.
4. This blog seem reliable to extent. Elefant gives sources for her information. This gives the blog validity. The main problem I can see is that though she states that this problem is going on, she does not give a way to prevent it.
5. The comment seem to overall approve of the the blog, though some seem less that favorable.
