Borrowing easier than writing

A massive 2,502 word pro-Wikileaks post today from Antony Loewenstein. Not unexpectedly journalist Loewenstien wrote only 124 of those words, the other 2,378 "borrowed" from four commercial sources employing actual journalists. There is no such thing as Copyright in Loewy-land.

Clearly he believes like Wikileaks in the free distribution of information gathered elsewhere.

I think nobody really worries about how much Ant plagiarises from them, because it's not like anyone much reads his blog anyway.

It's about as serious as the 12-year-old girl copying verbatim all the lyrics from her favourite boy bands into her diary.
