YES! Monica Crowley is a huge plagiarist. She lifted whole paragraphs of a British guy's article on Nixon, down to his Britishisms for a Wall Street Journal article, and still claims she didn't copy him. Read this:
http://slate.msn.com/id/1003470/
She is a thief and a liar, and not someone we conservatives want on our side. The Wall St. Journal will never publish her again, and there is doubt whether her two books on Nixon and her Ph.D. thesis are her own work or are plagiarism and fabrication. What do you expect from someone who constantly demands to be called "Doctor"?

First time I heard that plagerism is a bad thing for a liberal "journalist".

Strange times we live in.

Sorry to be so late in responding to your post, and the information (via slate.com) about Monica Crowley. That's horrifying. I have a whole new opinion of her now. Really too bad. Why would a bright, well educated woman NEED to plagiarize? I can understand a Ward Churchill doing it. He has sawdust in his head to begin with, but Monica is a very intelligent woman. It must be some kind of a personality disorder that causes scholars to do these things - lack of self-esteem?........or lacking confidence in their own intellectual abilities? (Doris Kern Goodwin did the same thing, if you recall........and also claimed that she didn't!!)
