John Kerry caught in plagiarism scandal

The New York Sun is reporting "Researcher Alleges Potential Plagiarism in 11 Passages of Kerry's Writings".

An academic researcher has found 11 passages in Senator Kerry's published writings that appear to have been taken from other works without attribution, though experts disagree about whether the copying should be considered plagiarism.

Six of the passages come from Mr. Kerry's 1997 book, "The New War: The Web of Crime That Threatens America's National Security." All bear some similarity to news accounts that preceded publication of the book.


Someone tell Biden.

Your quote says "experts disagree about whether the copying should be considered plagiarism".

Your headline says: "John Kerry caught in plagiarism scandal".

Sweet.

Of course, Bush's people could never be accused of such things... Erm...
