Ocala Magazine busted for plagiarism

posted 3 years ago

Tsk Tsk Tsk, Ocala Magazine of Ocala, FL, I guess I’ve lost complete faith in any sort of glossy publication.

“For the past four years, the editor of an award-winning local lifestyle magazine has been allegedly committing what some ethicists are calling “black and white” plagiarism.

The Star-Banner verified that in many cases, paragraphs and portions of Ocala Magazine stories and columns had been taken from a variety of news outlets - The Wall Street Journal, Dallas Morning News, Oprah Magazine and Entertainment Weekly to name a few.”

Wow, even Oprah!? Say it isn’t so. Is this going to be a battle of the ‘O’ magazines?
