ESPN addresses plagiarism issue
ProFootballTalk.com — ... justice. This wasn't a failure of attribution. It was a five-paragraph, Chris Landry-style cut and paste. As MDS pointed out in an IM exchange, the "ESPN.com staff" who did the cutting and pasting saw fit to remove the italics from the words "Around the League" and to supply quotation marks instead, which shows that this wasn't a quick and thoughtless error.
