It's to indicate that whoever wrote the quote/source originally made an error and the article is quoting it however that person wrote it, to show that they didn't make the mistake. For example if someone used your instead of you're, and I quoted them, I'd put [sic] to show that I'm not the one who used it incorrectly.
