So unless you can plagiarize yourself, I don't understand why this thread was made (or at least been updated). Self-Plagiarism The idea of self-plagiarism seems almost ridiculous, but it is a very real issue that has consequences. Self-plagiarism is the use of one's own previous work in another context without citing that it was used previously. The idea is that the writer should let the reader know that this was not the first use of the material. Republished text is a glaring example of self-plagiarism. The writer must cite his-or herself when using previously written work. X Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidward T 2,470 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Isnt plagiarism illegal if the person makes a profit with the plagiarized work, I am sure he got paid by the RNC to give the speech. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 The writer still needs permission from the original publication. Also it's just plain lazy. Like Trumps entire campaign.

Whispering 18,865 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 This wasn't plagerism, not in the same sense of what happened with Melania. The speechwriter used his own metaphor from a previous article that he wrote. Now, Melania's speech was straight up plagerism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
