I'm unsure of whether or not I should cite a _foreign language source_ (Swedish), with the original (Swedish) title, or use a translated English language title. The paper is for university-level coursework.

For example (using: [http://debatt.svt.se/2012/08/17/svenska-journalister-ljuger-om-assange/](http://debatt.svt.se/2012/08/17/svenska-journalister-ljuger-om-assange/)):

> Original (Swedish) title: svenska journalister ljuger om Assange
> 
> English: Swedish journalists lying about Assange

The validity of the translation is vulnerable to question, however I plan on using only _verified_ English translations from both media, and governmental (Swedish judiciary) sources.
