World Net Daily writer Jerome Corsi may have really stepped in it this time...
Loren Collins, who writes at Barackryphal, just uncovered what could shred whatever little credibility Corsi’s had.
Loren found that a Dec. 19 article published in WND, headlined, “Obama’s Legacy of Broken Promises – in Kenya” seems to have passages in it that were pulled partially or wholly from articles that appeared in the London Evening Standard – July 25, 2008 – and a May 2011 African news service story.
In his article, Corsi says all but two of the quotes in question came from his “inside sources” in Kenya.
But as Loren points out, most of Corsi’s “borrowed” material seems to have come from quite visible sources:
"In short, every single quote or finding specifically attributed to Corsi’s unnamed “researchers” was lifted from an earlier publication by another news agency."
You really need to go to Loren’s Web site to read this; he even reprints Corsi’s article and color codes the questionable passages by their probable origin...

OMG! LorenC!! Hadn’t thought about him in quite a while.
And I care why? America has been terrorized by a marxist asshole for the past 3 years. An asshole that NO ONE knows anything about! I don’t give a flying crap what some moron lib cretin says about anyone!
Oh, my...that looks like a coronary in the making.
Not since he decided to get in bed with Alex Jones.
Nov. 14th, 2011??????????????? Get lost creep. Go back to the Dummy underground where sleaze like you slither!
We’re gonna need a bigger bun.
See post 11. And the same question to you is.
Are you lying or simply wrong?
He spends most of his time at the Soros funded website TheFogBow.com
Neither...did you bother to follow the link and read the article?
Or joe Biden when he ripped off Neil Kinnock.
Is that one of those places where you need to shower after “visiting”?
BTW...Merry Christmas to you!
That’s the way they make them at my favorite cafe! I always ask for another bun and squeeze bottle of Plochmans mustard.
Yeah, it is the defense of OBama central on the Internet.
Merry Christmas too. :-)
"That the Obama campaign has chosen to portray me as a 9/11 Truther just shows how sloppy and inaccurate the research going into their rebuttal was," said Corsi, a senior staff writer for WND. "Let me make clear that I fully accept and endorse the conclusion of the 9/11 Commission that the Islamic hijackers who flew the airplanes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were the sole cause of the attack."
"There is no credible evidence that the U.S. government had any responsibility in the attack and it is irresponsible to suggest otherwise," he said.
Trolls come in all shapes and sizes don’t they.
“Dr. Jerome Corsi is held in very high esteem here”
I thought he might be. And that’s why I thought people would be interested in knowing that he got caught plagiarizing and making up fake sources.
