It's nice of Toby Keith to thank the Saudis for giving his career a shot in the towers. Arm. I mean arm.

Keith would perform for two penguins fuckin a walrus if it meant he could suck Trump's dick. Dumbfuck is straight up the worst kind of trailer trash you could scrounge up.

Deathy McDeath posted:This is really loving dumb. All of the "plagiarized" sections are footnoted and attributed, but Clarke apparently didn't put quotes around the statements. Really, we should be mad at NPS for letting that slip. As a (failed) academic I'd not ding him for this. Best practices is always quote everything ever and put citations in, but there are plenty -- PLENTY -- of works out there by real live academics who lightly paraphrase and then just toss a cite on the end of the paragraph and call it a day. If he's lifting verbatim and just dropping a footnote at the end of the paragraph that is worse (and actually in plagiarism territory) but by understanding he is just making an error of attribution in the thesis. All of this said: I have not read his thesis so I cannot speak to what he did, but this right now feels like a non-starter.

Suicide Watch posted:Is it common for non-military to attend Navy Postgraduate School? Why would anyone go unless it was either 1) offered very cheaply/free or 2) you couldn't get into a better program? https://www.chds.us/c/academic-programs/masters-degree-program I graduated from there and am finishing my thesis. They gave us multiple lectures on proper citations. I fully expect they'll yank his degree. Especially since he quoted several instructors without quotes including the department chair. What's a "better program"? Edit: I don't know what they used in 2013 but now they use turnitin which is what I assume CNN used to find the 47 times he failed to quote correctly.

Once to quote Ben Franklin (no looking guess which quote he uses). He has clearly cited in-text Colin Powell, and "writer" Mark Bowden (no clue who that is). This is super plagiarism and his advisor should be shot out of the academy for letting this poo poo through. Quoting for posterity about how wrong I was about this.

Both were pretty decent summer reading, but nothing I'd cite in an academic work outside of a very narrow focus (e.g. the hunt for Pablo Escobar).

Well yeah Mark Bowden wrote Black Hawk Down but as was previously mentioned, he was probably mentioned for the Pablo Escobar book. I liked "In the Company of Heroes" by Mike Durant anyway. Either way, I'm not surprised Clark referenced him.

A noncompliant guy acting unpredictably and reaching into his vehicle (you can see it in the helo video, before he's shot) is going to be treated as a threat. I'm not saying he deserved it, but trying to string up the woman who shot him is more excessive.
