New York Times reporter accused of plagiarism resigns: NYT.
One can avoid this problem if one uses quote marks and a link, or reference. It’s really very easy.
A person who doesn’t understand the subject of his writing, however, such as the reporter for a leftie paper, trying to write about economics, might have to use quotes so extensively that it chops up his article.
It would require significant comprehension of financial matters to shift around the language conveying Wall Street news, and that could be far beyond the abilities of most college grads these days.
So there you have it. Former NYT financial ‘jounrnalist’ , Zachary Kouwe might turn up in some new location as……. perhaps a food and entertainment reporter.
