The correct answer is C) a newspaper account written when the event occurred.
The best source of historical evidence to learn about how an event unfolded is a newspaper account written when the event occurred.
This is true because when you go look for a newspaper of the time when the event occurred, the news is going to be exact. The news shows what happened, why it happened, who was involved in the situation, where was the place, when the event happened and how things occurred in chronological order. The newspaper also is going to offer other journalistic resources such as Editorials, interviews with the characters, and articles for a better understanding of the event.
