New info > old info, unless they are contradicting each other, in which case neither piece of information supercedes the other and are both equally weighted. The many accounts of the Sage by different people is an example of the manga contradicting itself many times, but given that the manga never goes into any detail about it, the anime's version could be considered to be "accurate", even if it doesn't fit with the given information. In this case, all given information are equally weighted and no source outranks the other.
