Via MNPublius and Lloydletta's Nooz, I see that True North has booted one of its contributors for plagiarizing the post of another conservative blogger. It was not one isolated case of limited lifting. Michael Barrett, blogging as Seventh Son, apparently liked to read semi-obscure California blogs and appropropriate their content for his Minnesota blog.
True North's keepers looked into it, and within a week of the original discovery, they cut Barrett loose. I'm not mentioning this to tweak the GOP — Barrett was a failed candidate and district party official — but to recognize when the other guys do the right thing.
