He's made it personal, he's a dog with a bone in his mouth that he won't let go. Every hour they're running his interview this morning with Paul Manafort like it was THE news story of the YEAR!
It actually was fun this morning watching Manafort laughing under his breath at the oh-so-earnestly-outraged Cuomo during the interview.
(Cuomo never got to first base with the unflappable Manafort, much to his frustration, lol).
No wonder CNN is perpetually an also-ran in TV viewing ratings. This news nutwork features and showcases some of the most unattractive, obsessed, off-putting, motor-mouthed, twisted, petty, shallow and arrogant news-chatterers who sit en masse in its studios and on its panels dispensing pure leftist blather to undiscriminating audiences.
The one-and-only redeeming grace CNN has is that ratings-wise it somehow manages to remain a hair above the sinking, hopeless, hapless mess that is CNN's mini-me, MSNBC.

I teach college.
Research papers are a challenge for students.
Some students “self-plagiarize” by simply taking an old research paper and cut-and-paste the content, if not the entire paper.
If they use someone’s words (too include their own) they must reference it.
Please see Post 82.
“I thought that if you’re quoting yourself it has to be cited, if it’s something that would normally require that a source be given.”
In a research paper—yes.
I happen to know that, in his Thursday night speech, Donald Trump plans to use the word “The” numerous times - just as Barack Obama did in a 2008 speech. Such blatant plagiarism!
“Ridiculous by the virtue that you cannot plagiarize yourself, regardless of the venue. “
Not entirely true.
In an academic setting for a research paper you provide a citation when you quote, use a fact or statistic.
Where I teach it is up to the instructor.
The left is so desperate they want to make a campaign issue out of Trump's wife's speech.
It's not like she said "colored people time."
From the link:
he article is based around the question of whether it's okay to "plagiarize yourself," but I worry that even that's a bit misleading. You can't plagiarize yourself. Plagiarism is about passing off someone else's work as your own. Reusing work is not the same thing at all, but is a separate issue -- and one that doesn't really seem to be much of a problem once you think about it.
You can use yourself all you want, just source/cite it.
Oh, and I allow some students to use previous works, IF they ask first and it meets the requirements for the paper (most all previous works do not and the student that re-submits a previous paper usually does worse than if he did independent research.
Biden’s mother was the first person in history to tell her son “If someone knocks you down, you get back up and fight!”
