"a terrible mistake, ... a serious lapse..."

Yeah, that is what they call it now..."mistakes."


This was no "mistake." A mistake is when you do something by accident, or you don't know any better, or you forget. You make a mistake on a test when your answer is wrong. You make a mistake when you burn dinner. You make a mistake when you make the wrong turn. There was no "mistake" with what Zakaria did. He did this ON PURPOSE. And he hoped to get away with it. Like the kid stealing cookies, only sorry that he was caught.


Here is a thought, fire his ass and make an example of him that when you lie, cheat and steal their are cosequences for your actions. Instead Time and CNN will suspend him for a month, just in time to continue his cheerleading for Obama upon his return.

LOL
Are you comparing someone on this blog with someone who is on CNN, and writes the Times and WP??? I did not realize STY was getting paid for posting on this blog.

The Koch Bros. are paying him.

So it's okay to plagiarize if you're not getting paid to write?

What did STY lie about, and how major of a deflection is it in this context?
