It's gaining wider attention, even though it's been known for years that Coulter is a habitual plagiarist (her famous stalker Scooby has had the evidence for years). Now the
NY Post has published an article about her less than honest citing of source material.
But that's not the funny thing. As TPM muckraker has been
covering the story, I found this gem from the plagiarism expert (Barrie) who had to scan her book into the system.
It didn't take long to find evidence of plagiarism, Barrie said. "After we found three in the book, we called it quits. I think we found four of her syndicated columns that had problems." But the task proved draining, he said -- on himself, not his technology. "After combing through Ann Coulter for a while, it doesn't take long before you want to call it quits. I want to prove the technology, but I don't want to make my eyes bleed."
Ha! Well, we'll see if Universal Press Syndicate decides
plagiarism is against their policy. TPM muckraker is on it!
