  Yep. I compiled info on the last story these goofs tried to pass off as their own when it was an obviously plagiarized story from the Associated Press. All that site does is a half-assed version of paraphrasing and plagiarism from real news sources and tried to pass it off as its own.
  I sent it to James Marcus as well as the AP. I was told Propeller meant to ban the site from posting here again. Perhaps it takes a little time or someone forgot.
  In reading it, you might have noticed several grammar errors and the information isn't attributed other than the quote, which you can bet they got from another source and failed to attribute it.

    Deadly Nightclub Raid In Mexico City
    "Police went to the club last night when someone reported that alcohol and drugs were being sold to minors celebrating the end of the school year.
    "The crowd rushed into an emergency exit after the club owner announced that officers were there to arrest them. The emergency exit was partially blocked by cases of beer. 12 people were killed and 13 injured in the crush. Police detained 39 people including the owner."
