I bet they picked some Trump supporting rube and told him they were gonna plagiarise him, so that he could deny that it was plagiarism and be all "you can't own a word, man". Then the Trump campaign could say "see if the guy we plagiarised said it wasn't plagiarism, we have deleted that word's meaning so shut up about it"

I don't know if this makes sense I have been drinking for a while

I mean in an academic setting you would get in trouble for this because lazily repackaging your poo poo is a very bad thing.

As long as you rephrase and cite or quote and cite it's fine. Like, citing and describing your earlier studies is kind of critical when you are building on your own work.

Edit: and if you reused works not published it's also fine.

Yes. That's not what I said at all, nor is it what happened. The practice of dressing up the same research and publishing it 3 times in different journals is the problem I'm referencing.

Chris Christie is literally Hitler.

Ben Carson wants everybody to know that democrats worship Lucifer.

Donald Trump Jr. gave a good speech that was also plagiarized like the speech Melania gave yesterday.

Some lady is both an actress AND a farmer, and that's important.

It was surreal.

Buckley probably was the speechwriter, but they included that part last minute so the media would jump all over it and the Trump campaign would get to go SEE THE MEDIA BLOWS EVERYTHING OUT OF PROPORTION

Yes I do earnestly believe the Trumps to be that conspiratorial and incompetent.

Sure! That too! I had completely forgotten about all that, so it's clearly working.

Goddam :(

Think about it--there are two days left in the convention and if this new little plagiarism incident pops up, however inconsequential it actually is, it's a narrative delivered to the media on a silver platter. The overarching theme of the convention goes from "Make America Great Again" to "We Literally Can't Stop loving Plagiarizing".

No, no one in Trump's corner will care, but those on the right who weren't will be further disenchanted and demoralized and the left will have yet another cudgel to bash him over the head with. All the while, Hillary can ride above the fray while Trump gets in Twitter slapfights with everyone who mocks Trumpfest 2016.

The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.

F.H. Buckley is a professor at George Mason Law School and the author of The Way Back: Restoring the Promise of America.

George Mason posted:

B. Plagiarism encompasses the following:

1. Presenting as one's own the words, the work, or the opinions of someone else without proper acknowledgment.

2. Borrowing the sequence of ideas, the arrangement of material, or the pattern of thought of someone else without proper acknowledgment.

Edit:

Plagiarism includes self-plagiarism, inadequate citation, false citation, and failure to adhere to citation forms set by the
