What stood out to me while reading “Senator’s Thesis Turns Out to Be Remix of Others’ Works, Uncited” was, “at least a quarter of his thesis on American Middle East policy from other authors’ works, with no attribution.” So, he was appointed to the United States Senate and his thesis paper was written in 2007. The article on the other hand was written in 2014. Interesting. Who went to the trouble of researching Walsh’s thesis paper? I believe peoples ideas are a complex topic. I was told once, “Your responsible for what you know, your not responsible for what you don’t know.” I believe that applies here.
