Plagiargate – Whodunit?

3. An out of work reporter.....

10 years ago she might well have gotten away with it. The reporter might have noticed it and told a few of his friends and that might have been the end of it or it would have taken so long to get out that it would have been old news.

But not today. If anyone notices it, everyone knows it almost immediately.

Bad cops have been beating up people ever since the first police force was formed and some guy with a badge and gun decided it gave it gave him the power he had been seeking all of his life over other human beings. But now that everyone has a video camera in their cell phone, for the first time there is real evidence of abuse of power.

It is harder to hide anything in these interconnected times.

I am fascinated with this story as well Cha. I love trying to figure out from external evidence what is going on in a closed group.

I also find it real interesting that some of DU have been defending Melania aggressively - perhaps it because they feel she was forced into giving the speech or because of a sense cf kinship with another woman.
