Fox News Caught Plagiarizing!

Politico’s Dylan Byers reports that FoxNews.com lifted material from John Hudson of the Atlantic Wire about Navy-trained dolphins. Byers reports that Fox News never responded to his inquiry about the piece. But he did find a note on their website apologizing for failing “to properly source and add original reporting or language that would significantly distinguish it from an article that was posted (earlier) on theatlanticwire.com.”

Whoever is responsible should be fired. Faux News: we plagiarize, you decide whether or not we're thieves!

In most other news outfits (not that Fox is news), the plagerizer would be fired…

“It’s only a mistake if we get caught.” Jabba T. Ailes.

That what happens when you hire amateurs and freelancers to work at this fraudulent “news” outlet.

Since Nixon-trainee Roger Ailes is head of this front for the GOP, place all the blame on him.

It takes talent to write stuff, so we just rip it off – job done!

You know how foxnews.com was caught? All the words in the offending passages were spelled right. That’s a sure sign no one who works for them wrote it.
