Thus far, her short stint has been marked by an inability to read the teleprompter, proven plagiarism,

Anybody remember what the plagiarism incident was?

I think that’s referring to the time she was caught making up some inspiring incident in her life having to do with reading in the public library, which in actuality was an incident in someone else’s life.

My recollection is that Katie had a feature called “Notes.” One of these features was about Katie’s experiences getting a library card or her first visit to a library or some such. Turns out, though, that this “first-person” account was not written by Katie, but by one of her producers as if it were Katie’s own experience. However, it also turns out that the producer lifted it from another source without attribution (Wall Street Journal?). The producer was nailed but not Katie.
