1. This twitter account belongs to reporter Lois Beckett who writes for the Guardian and resides (according to the app) in Los Angeles California. We know that she is a reporter and that she is speaking on her own platform and not that of the guardian. This is on the platform of twitter which anyone can use and act as anyone they want.
2. I can learn that she is a reporter who is outspoken and an advocate. She believes heavily in the rights of all people, especially young people to protest. She is an activist and a reporter who wants to highlight what she believes to be integral issues in her country and community.
3. I used twitter.com to start but not as a conclusion as the content on there is created by those who utilize it. I then used the guardians website and managed to find her page and some of her works. Since she is a reporter there they have an official profile Thsi is a reliable source because they are her employer, as well as previosu employers of hers such as propublica, a slightly less reputable company she worked for.
4. I do not think account is a trustworthy source of information regarding the school walkouts. Although she is a reporter she is not reporting on this account for news, this is a personal account where she can give her opinion. This is a reliable way to gage her opinion on these topics but not to find an objective retelling of events regarding the walkouts.
