In the last few days some news sites have reported the unfortunate event of a writer for some eastern US news something telling (on camera) European news reporter guy that he was using cut and paste to report on the Presidential elections. Apparently he had been drinking something other than tea and proceeded to admit to using the works of others in his report. I am curious how exactly do you report on any national event and not plagiarize someone. How many ways can you say "The president of the United states of America once again tripped and fell down the stairs of Air-force one."? Yes I remember Gerald Ford. Fondly actually, he had the guts to veto anything that he didn't like. One of the few American presidents Maybe the only one who was both VP and President without ever running for or being elected to either post. So if you reported on that event which seemed to happen a lot in those days and, say some guy writing for the Podunk Mourning News used exactly the same words to do so, were either of you guilty of plagiarism? I certainly don't know. Is that worth taking a poll on? No I guess not.
