Answer : giving credit to the original author or source

The practice of giving credit to the original author or source is called attribution. It is as simple as telling the readers or the listeners where the information comes from. You may paraphrased or just directly quote the information. It is important to know when and how to attribute the information you gathered to someone to avoid conflicts in the future especially in the media. You may use attribution in both oral and written story. Attribution can also be used in quotes.
