Yes, she was powerful, emotional, and mad. I’ve always liked her a lot, but was disappointed to read of her plagiarism.

She never named the issue she was attacked falsely about. Was it the plagiarism? She was very secretive about whatever attack they did on her. She did say that her editor agreed it was a false attack, so it sounds like that might have been it.

When I read the charge of her plagiarizing in both her college thesis and the new book, it looked like a slam dunk. Now, I want to see her side, I want to see where it is debunked.

I would like to have all my respect for her back. Someone know where to find her defense against the plagiarism charge?

Good for you to come to this realization. I do however want to say that it is frustrating to see conservatives (and here you would think would be the most pro-Trump conservatives) — continue to fall for the liberal political hit jobs of anyone pro Trump.

The attacks will never cease for four years. For Sessions, for Bannon, for Milo, etc. I don’t care if the NY Times and all four main networks tell me they have proof of whatever despicable crimes they may in the future accuse of people who are pro-Trump. It may be murder, rape, whatever.

I would highly, highly question the motives behind those stories and NOT buy them at face value, no matter how incriminating it would look. I could even be proved beyond doubt that there may be fire behind the smoke, but I would still be highly, highly skeptical and would want to know much more of what’s not being reported.

Please don’t buy their BS so easily.

She would have done better to speak to that issue.

“...but was disappointed to read of her plagiarism.”

Experts examined the specific points where she allegedly committed plagiarism. They concluded she did not plagiarize since she attributed sources in footnotes, which is generally an accepted method.

Here is the article by Andrew McCarthy that was referred to by Sean in last night’s interview:

She didn't plagiarize. Google National Review Monica Crowley.

It was a CNN hit piece. CNN deliberately omitted Crowley's footnotes.

McCarthy is terrific, this is worth a read through to see how Crowley was to a degree framed:
