MMA journalism roundtable: sourcing, citing and plagiarizing

By Jim Murphy July 27th, 2009

Here’s today’s question at MMA Opinion’s journalism roundtable:

One of the sore spots MMA writers have is when writers don’t cite their information. While everyone would agree that stealing articles (cutting and pasting with changed names) is wrong, what about repeating information read elsewhere without citing the source? Or when people’s entire article is a quote taken from somewhere else? Where do you draw the line between laziness and plagiarism?
