This isn't plagiarism. It's laughable to say that it was, they cited him. I know this is an insanely simple comment that will lead people to think I didn't read this conversation or really think about this topic, but I did. And it's not. The internet is ridiculous sometimes.
- dpham 14y agoI think most people are just angry at the CEO's reaction to the author; he definitely comes off as a petty jerk. I also think calling it plagiarism is a bit of a stretch.

- pbreit 14y agoIf it's not plagiarism, it's close enough that a) the TNW author should write more originally and 2) the TNW editor should not be such a jerk about it.
