Salon's King Kaufman Ripped Me Off!

And furthermore: Fuck that guy.

torch.jpg We in the media steal each other's ideas all the time. The Onion starts the Tolerability Index one week, the next Newsweek launches the Dignity Index. This is a copycat profession, and it's no biggie unless someone crosses the line and actually plagiarizes something verbatim. I don't think King Kaufman's "exclusive interview" with the Olympic torch--which followed the Weekly's exclusive interview with the torch--crossed that line, but I'm still annoyed. You know what I'm saying, King? -- Will Harper

I do know what you're saying. Sorry. Obviously, I hadn't seen your piece. Great minds think alike on slow news days, I guess.

Cheers.
