Isd it appropriate to use the flash videos in a research paper?

Or other content?

The TV shows I've used before, and it went fine

How would I cite them?
Website or TV or Recording?

I've done some college teaching, and I'd give you a hard time for it. If it's homework, you might get away with it; if it's an end of the term paper, I would definitely stay away from it.

Depends a lot on what it's for. High school might find it acceptable, college less so. Research suggests primary sources usually. I'd be more inclined to want you to find out what sources History.com used to create the presentation and go to them. Secondary sources are usually more for historiographical works, or for general information that isn't central anyway. How you cite it depends on what you're using; APA, Chicago, MLA, etc. Also where you're citing; footnote, parenthetical, bibliography, etc.

Damn kids! I used to have to walk all the way to the damn library, check out a book from the disgusting, moldy librarian, laboriously copy out the pertinent info after spending an hour finding it, then walk back home to write the damn paper in the first place.

You don't know what REAL school work is like! With your....MUSIC....and WEED.....

Seriously though, it mostly depends on your professor. Is he pretty loose and easy, or strict and by the books? Anything past high school I'd so definitely no anyways.

In college, no. High school, maybe.
