In general it is always good to balance between primary and secondary source. The primary source is more reliable than the secondary one. Your sources have to be trusworthy and reliable. This is why it is always advisable to have several different sources, at least more than 2.
Sometimes you can also use an anonymous source, that means only known by you or other journalists.
