    People like @ezraklein defending this as all well and good are disappointing and lacking in nuance.https://twitter.com/voxdotcom/status/755611063270375424 …

        This, like @sahilkapur's tweets, miss the ever-loving point. This isn't about whether people are getting credit for a college course.

        This isn't that sort of "plagiarism" discussion. This is about speeches supposedly explaining ideas & the man who wants to lead the US.

        For a professor like Buckley to re-use his own language from a prior writing is an odd ego exercise, first of all.

        Second, of all this is extraordinarily lazy. Of Buckley and the campaign. Really? For a speech like this, you're going to re-use old stuff?

        Third, I don't care when the speech was written. After last night, if nothing else, the campaign should have found & edited the part today.

        once @ezraklein started Vox, he lost his nerve. Too scared to seem liberal, he pushed posts that were transparently bullshit.
