Mocked by NPR

[neotoma]

You know you've sunk pretty far, when you're publicly mocked on National Public Radio...

Cassie Edwards, the romance novelist who plagiarized articles on black-footed ferrets among other thing, was one of the answers on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me this morning.

Hahahaha! That is awesome. That'll teach her. Or maybe not, given that her reaction so far has been, "But I've only wholesale copied entire passages out of dozens of other books because my readers demand it!"

It's such a trainwreck of audacity and arrogance. I'm watching it with a lot of amusement.

BTW, I haven't seen you forever. We should meet up sometime. I don't suppose you have off on Monday?

I do have Monday off, but I've just had a minor procedure done on my right foot yesterday and it now hurts like the dickens. I'm staying in all weekend with my foot propped up. :(

And possibly more to come on this foot... and then my left. So much joy. ;(

Hee, I just logged on to post this v. same thing. :D

When they got to that question I was "Wait, I know this!"

And they read the passage out loud... :D

There's something about the first name Cassie, isn't there? *can't stop laughing*

Publicly mocked by National Public Radio. Is there any lower you can sink? After all, they are the *nice* ones on talk radio!
