This is the part of this article that got me pissed off BIGTIME:

As the previous links on the matter mention, at least one of the pieces Ben Domenech is accused of having plagiarized was a movie review for National Review Online. A side-by-side comparison to another review of the same film speaks for itself. There is no excuse for plagiarism and we apologize to our readers and to Steve Murray of the Cox News Service from whose piece the language was lifted. With some evidence of possible problems with other pieces, we're also looking into other articles he wrote for NRO.

Yeah, thanx for NUTHIN' NRO. I sent you examples of my AL GORE AT THE MOVIES and you wouldn't even give me the time of the day! Instead you publish a movie review that was PLAGIARIZED. Please forgive me for submitting an ORIGINAL piece of work.

As to Ben Domenech.... I just don't think Blogs as part of a news organization really work. What is appealing about blogs is their anarchic nature which is counter to the corporate environment. If newspapers want to LINK to blogs by having a Blog LINK page that is a different matter but Blogs as PART of a News Organization? It just doesn't fit.
