Ann Coulter - Plagiarist

This has been floating around the news for a few days. It's from the New York Post. Hey, doesn't Rupert Murdoch own the New York Post? And doesn't he also own Fox News?

Proof enough that the attack on the scary adam's apple lady are from the lib'rul press, huh?

Here's how the piece begins:
Conservative scribe Ann Coulter cribbed liberally in her latest book, "Godless," according to a plagiarism expert.

John Barrie, the creator of a leading plagiarism-recognition system, claimed he found at least three instances of what he calls "textbook plagiarism" in the leggy blond pundit's "Godless: the Church of Liberalism" after he ran the book's text through the company's digital iThenticate program.

He also says he discovered verbatim lifts in Coulter's weekly column, which is syndicated to more than 100 newspapers, including the Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) Sun-Sentinel and Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle.
Plagarism is a bad thing, right?

So far, there hasn't been any reaction from her. Except this.
Once considered a legitimate daily, the Post has been reduced to tabloid status best known for Page Six's breathless accounts of Paris Hilton's latest ruttings, and headlines like "Vampire Teen -- H.S. Girl Is Out for Blood." How crappy a newspaper is the Post? Let me put it this way: It's New York's second-crappiest paper.

Maybe the Post's constant harassment of me is an attempt to shake me down for protection money like they did with billionaire businessman Ron Burkle. I have sold a LOT of books -- more books, come to think of it, than any writers at the New York Post.
It's been pointed out that she isn't exactly responding to the attacks on her credibility (a side note: Ann Coulter has credibility? Maybe not so much any more). She just attacks Rupert Murdoch's paper as the "second crappiest" in New York.

Looks like the story is heating up. Universal, the syndicate that publishes Coulter's crap might be investigating her, too!

Couldn't happen to a nicer She-Devil.

  1. The liberal left is threatend by Ann Coulter, nothing more. It's all false. Ann Coulter writes her own material. You people just cannot stand her.

    The whiny, complaining, temper-tantrum left strikes out again ...

  2. annon, you really should read the passages side by side. it is clear. she lifted them without even trying to disquise it. if she were writing a term paper and did what she did, just in some of her own newspaper columns let alone her book, she have gotten an f and possibly expelled. even high school kids know what plagerism is.
    remember how to use footnotes?

  3. she didn't steal from herself, she stole from other people and used it in some of her newspaper columns way before she stole for this last book. the newspaper publishers are not amused and i hear their lawyers are involved.

    i think tho, she'll just get a slap on the wrist,(she's a right wing media darling!) as opposed to the guy( i forget his name)a few years back that sunk his career by doing the it.

  6. there is sue, quoting shit from marxist feminist lesbian-loving websites....like any of their words have any merit whatsoever.

    Shit I am so sick of gays wanting special rights based on their sexual orientation...it pisses me off.

    Go put on your "smart glasses" sue and see what you can come up with some more.

  7. What upsets me about the title of her latest book is that it poisons that word, which I liked, 'cuz it was the title of a Dandy Warhols song that I enjoy.

  8. Ann C says anyone who believes evolution is Godless...I don't have a problem with that label. If beliveing in God makes me act the way the warmongering morons who run this world do..then I don't want anything to do with God. Besides...evolution is still happening.
