Knots Landing lover here. Diana was Karen's daughter from her first marriage to Sid Fairgate. Lonow was only on the show for the first five years (1979-84) and she was written off. (Diana started out as a real teen but became shrill and unpopular. Karen's sons remained on the show.) Lonow did appear in three of the final episodes as well, and Diana was now living in New York City, no doubt waiting for her chance to write sex advice.

Everyone - across the entire continent! - rapes babies?

That's a hyperbolic, disingeuous, crap statement if there ever was one. Because there are crazy, ignorant whackjobs who rape babies on other continents too - even this one!

They owe me $50 for a piece that ran about two, two and a half years ago. If they owe me a paltry sum, you know that they probably owe other writers, utilities etc., makes you wonder how they're keeping alive?
They don't have any credibility or readership any more.

BTW- no, I didn't plagiarize anyone in my piece.

You know? That's just...really mean, and juvenile, and especially unsympathetic, as if SHE never tried to be famous. Oh, wait! she did. Look where it got her.

It goes on, but I she's just too shtty.

What I do care about, sumac, is that the Dig higher-ups thought that they needed to go in a different direction than that which they had been on and excelled at for years. I don't understand. What a bummer.

Well done Jezebel for catching this.

Mostly they just copied from stuff online. Type one sentence into Google - busted.

I also used to work as a writer for a company that created industrial training classes. A woman there got fired for plagiairizing verbatim out of textbooks. She had an actual degree in journalism.

]]> <![CDATA["Edgy" New <i>New York Press</i> Sex Columnist Stole Incest Question From Dan Savage]]> @bananaballs: You would hope that would be obvioius, but I used to work as an English tutor, and plagiarists are often really stupid. One woman didn't even bother changing the font on the passage she had copied and pasted from the internet to match with the rest of her paper. And friends of mine who taught English classes said that students would often just copy the first Google entry for their topic. And two students in a friend's class teamed up to plagiarize the exact same essay...for a class they had together.

That, and in the Internet Age, you can't hope to get away with something like that because you will be found out.

]]> <![CDATA["Edgy" New <i>New York Press</i> Sex Columnist Stole Incest Question From Dan Savage]]> Okay, I was typing so fast, that my comment came out sounding stupid. I've been reading DS regularly and obsessively since I was 13. And I knew as soon as I read the NYP column yesterday that I had read that question before.

The NYP sucks anyways, they always reprint the same crossword puzzle three weeks in a row, or have one that doesn't match the clues. I know, I'm lame, but it's really frustrating...

The website I was at was fairly small but we got 50 letters worth responding to within a week of asking people to send us their questions.

]]> <![CDATA["Edgy" New <i>New York Press</i> Sex Columnist Stole Incest Question From Dan Savage]]> Somehow I suspect she is totally the same girl who plagiarized an entire page of our high school yearbook from some other school. The best part was that she cited things like a dance held by student council, which, uh, never happened at our school but apparently had at the one she lifted the stuff from.

Oh wait, can't be the same person. That girl is now a news anchorette in Indiana. Now I'm even more depressed thinking that there are two such dishonest morons in the world.

]]> <![CDATA["Edgy" New <i>New York Press</i> Sex Columnist Stole Incest Question From Dan Savage]]> So let me get this straight: you write to tell him that the column was a carbon copy of one already answered by DS, and his response was "we don't censor on the basis of what may be shocking to you?" That just = you busted us and all I can do is answer a different question entirely.
