Did you see the link to the article at CNN Money? The Milton Friedman passage is but one of fifty or so examples and it is one of the shortest and tamest. I am waiting for Monica’s explanation. Maybe it’s a good one.

Did you see the link to the article at CNN Money? The Milton Friedman passage is but one of fifty or so examples and it is one of the shortest and tamest. I am waiting for Monica’s explanation. Maybe it’s a good one.

From the CNN Money article:

In the book, Crowley lifted an entire section on Keynesian economics from the IAC-owned website Investopedia.
They only linked to the Investopedia archived text. The article in question began with:
The Keynesian multiplier was introduced by Richard Kahn in the 1930s. It showed that any government spending brought about cycles of spending that increased employment and prosperity regardless of the form of the spending. For example, a $100 million government project, whether to build a dam or dig and refill a giant hole, might pay $50 million in pure labor costs. The workers then take that $50 million and, minus the average saving rate, spend it at various businesses. These businesses now have more money to hire more people to make more products, leading to another round of spending. This idea was at the core of the New Deal and the growth of the welfare state.
Don't you see that Monica Crowley provided a statement attributed to its author, Richard Kahn. Therefore, it was not a plagiarism of, Andrew Beattie.

Did you even read the article at the link I provided?

I say again, until I get access to a LexisNexis platform to search for every instance of the 52 so called Monica Crowley plagiarisms for every possible occurrence in the the years before her book was published, I totally disregard with extreme disdain this attempt to disparage a brilliant conservative in an attempt to harm Donald Trump's administration.
