She wrote about Nixon’s impeachment and lifted whole passages, word for word out of British historian’s Paul Johnson’s work on the subject.
Crowley ripped him off without giving him proper credit.
Ok,thanks.
And Joe Biden is VP. Big deal.
I will need to check the passages from the two articles before I convict her.
Oh my gosh!! I just lost a ton of respect for Monica Crowley. I’m disgusted. Sorry for the Slate link but they have the passages Monica apparently stole right from Paul Johnson.
This is egregious and as a lifelong writer and reader, with respect for other writers’ work, I am appalled. I would not have done this in high school. I knew even then how to grasp IDEAS and write them in my own words. This is petty and dumb. She stole a sentence from Paul Johnson that included a British term we don’t use in America. That is Bush league. Disgusted. Sure, I can forgive her, and she has been great lately on Hannity, but this is like seeing her get caught stealing from Target. Trashy and stupid behavior.
