Plagiarists Beware

Everything on Wounded Times is from news reports, government publications and other historical records along with articles I've written based on over 30 years of research.

There are over 24,000 articles on Wounded Times. All of them are linked to the source.

If you are among the plagiarists out there using what you find here, you better go back to whatever you simply copied and link to where you got it from!
Define Plagiarist at Dictionary.com
plagiarism definition. Literary theft. Act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another author without authorization and the representation of that author's work as one's own, as by not crediting the original author:

I am tired of hearing from readers something I wrote has been copied on another site hours, days, weeks and in a lot cases, years after I wrote it.

They are looking for you now. Whenever we find offenders, it will be publicized especially if it is found on a news site.

In case you doubt this, consider what happened last week when the Rachel Maddow Show decided that privatizing the VA was a great thing to report on and most of the information was what had been posted here days before including the graphic from the history of the VA cover. Could it be a coincidence? Sure that is possible but it is more likely one of her staffers got really lazy.

Wounded Times has been covering the issue of privatizing the VA for years!

If you want to cover veterans issues, do the research all by yourself.

Get an idea and the find the information all on your own the way I invest hours of my own time. I may make it look easy but it is far from it!

If you want to make your life easier, then you can use what I have when you link to it, otherwise folks will know exactly why they should trust anything else you do.

The date and timestamp are on every post on this site and that, you cannot erase that as much as you seem to want to erase my work.
