Two things strike me about this:
First, no wonder aging ex pats like me have such a hard time with the language when this the way they think and the way it sounds to us.

Second, no mention of the affirmative action aspect of this matter. This strikes me as a vorbild of the distorted picture of america presented to the Germans by the leftist press.

its provisional sin register is listed.

The word "sin" is accurate, too.

What Blair did, and top honchos at the NY Times did, was sinful.

Lies piled on top of lies. Plagiarism piled on top of plagiarism.
