      1. Globe and Mail's defence of Wente is she's sloppy, not a plagiarist. That suggests way out of this mess: http://www.j-source.ca/article/globe-and-mail-editor-chief-%E2%80%9Csloppy-standards%E2%80%9D-where-they-found-issues-wente …

      2. The best way to understand Wente's plagiarism problem is that she's not really a columnist but an aggregator working in wrong form.

      3. Many of us link on twitter & blog posts to articles we like. Wente does same, except she takes words & doesn't put quotes around them.

      4. Globe should make Wente into a blogger or twitter & teach her proper protocol about quotes. Problem solved.

      5. The deep roots of Wente-ism is fact that Canada was, when she made her career, a provincial country where few read foreign press.

          6. So Wente was able to make a lucrative career by rehashing what she read in NY Times & WSJ, since few Globe readers read those.

          @HeerJeet This is what I tell my students: It's easier than ever to plagiarize. And easier than ever to get caught.

          @HeerJeet In other words, her whole career was probably based on plagiarism. But now we have the technology to catch her.

          @LeoMcKayJr @HeerJeet Right. But it's not due to her age or when she started her career, it's due to her plagiarism.

          @HeerJeet Good grief. How come she's the exception then? No one else in Canadian journalism is plagiarizing..oh sorry, "sloppy".

          @HeerJeet She also had the "right" politics so she gets away with a lot more.
