How did you authenticate the video when it was first presented to you?

Why was so much of the video blurred out in your initial release of it? I understand the need to protect your source, but does offering a heavily blurred video pose credibility issues in how it will be percieved

I think you are right about that, I'm curious about the editorial process behind making that decision. On one hand, protecting your source is paramount in journalism, but on the other the blurring/editing can affect the credibility of the video itself - obviously as the story has continued to break the video is proving to be real, but I'm curious as to that initial decision.
