A secondary source is one that pulls from primary sources. Primary sources are direct reporting or accounts of historical events from those who witnessed them, and secondary sources analyze and summarize those.

A secondary source is one in which the person who wrote the article did not site it from the actual event. He took information from primary sources to get his answers. A secondary source was not actually written at the time of the event.
