If you're interested in the subject, here's a site with some of the more prominent cases : http://www.cheatingculture.com/morecheatingjour.htm A friend of mine from college, who is now a professor at a Washington university, says that academic dishonesty has become rampant and largely unenforced. Basically, students get away with it more. This most likely follows a real-world trend; people simply aren't as honest anymore because things like honor have been diminished. Now, people perceive they're more likely to be judged by the car they drive then by their personal integrity. The terrible thing is that there are legitimate, idealistic young writers out there begging for work in the industry while established names are being rewarded for publishing falsehood and nonsense. -c |

... UK journalism is even more prone to tabloid than American. Check out Page 3 of The Sun (I sure as hell did when I was there for Robot Wars! : ) :-) Fortunately, we do have some "real" newspapers! If you think The Sun is bad (and it is...a proper news story will be a small box somewhere on one of the internal pages) try The Sport (or is it called The Daily Sport these days...it started as just the Sunday Sport).
