You're hilarious, rug. Your favourite atheist is a liar and a thief and you think he makes us look bad?
Plagiarism
In October 2014, Werleman was shown to have plagiarized the writing of Fareed Zakaria, Vali Nasr, William Broyles Jr., Robert Pape, Eduardo Porter, and others as documented by Stephen Knight on the Godless Spellchecker's Blog.[2] Whole sentences and passages from Werleman's published articles in Salon Magazine and AlterNet were published previously without any citation or attribution.[3] Upon learning of this discovery, reporter Michael Luciano of The Daily Banter and atheist author and philosophy professor Peter Boghossian began searching for more instances of plagiarism, unearthing several examples.[4] Werleman addressed the allegations in a Facebook post, admitting some instances of plagiarism.[1]
AlterNet went on to remove all of Werleman's articles from their archives and issued an apology to readers and those who had been plagiarized.[5] Salon also addressed Werleman's plagiarism in their "Corrections" section under 2014, telling readers that plagiarized passages will be emboldened and hyperlinks to the original material will be included.[6]
