Fareed Zakaria, Plagiarist

Seems ol` Fareed is so anxious to please the anti-gun crowd that he plays fast and loose with facts and resorts to plagiarism.  On top of that he still calls himself a "journalist" even Time/CNN canned his lying ass for a month, when they give you a timeout, you really are at the bottom of the barrel http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/313587/fareed-zakaria-vs-guns-robert-verbruggen      http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/fareed-zakaria-reinstated-at-cnn-time-after-suspension...

Doesn't say if his vacation was paid or not.

Re: Fareed Zakaria, Plagiarist

I really had to chuckle when I heard on the radio that Fareed had been found to be stealing sentences from some other writer. How stupid can you be to take words from the New Yorker and use them in time when there has to be thousands of common readers that would surely recognize the thefts?

 

I never found Fareed to be all that bright when I used to read his columns and this just reinforces my opinion.

Re: Fareed Zakaria, Plagiarist

So, do you think he is a thug for making what both CNN and Time called an unintentional and  isolated incident of plaragism?
