Noted War Blogger Cops to Copying 
...
Like any number of webloggers trying to make their mark with commentary
on the war in Iraq, Sean-Paul Kelley knew geography and career
experience didn't favor him.

Time to throw in some trust metrics, eh? The ironic thing here is that
the Agonist copied the stuff from a subscriber-only newsletter by
Strafor -- and the reason that nobody noticed is that relatively few
people had access to the info. The Strafor info was, however, obviously
not DRM-protected in any way - just plain text. But try to find stuff
like that on any file sharing network, you won't. Now with the Agonist
exposed, people might actually have to buy a subscription!
