The Agonist Cops to 50% Stratfor

Wired News reports that Kelley's insightful window on the details of the war brought him increasing readership (118,000 page views on a recent day) and acclaim, including interviews in the The New York Times and on NBC's Nightly News, Newsweek online and National Public Radio.

The only problem: Much of his material was plagiarized -- lifted word-for-word from a paid news service put out by Austin, Texas, commercial intelligence company Stratfor.

"You got me, I admit it.... I made a mistake," Kelley said. "It was stupid."

I freely admit most of my posts are cut and pastes from a wide variety of sources with the link to the original source provided. The agonist did not usually provide the links and tried to pretend it had unnamed sources providing it war news.
