Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer Winner, a Lefty Hero, & a Plagiarist. | The New RepublicThe plagiarism at Harper’s was not an isolated incident. Hedges has a history of lifting material from other writers that goes back at least to his first book, War Is A Force That Gives Us Meaning, published in 2002. He has echoed language from Nation author Naomi Klein. He has lifted lines from radical social critic Neil Postman. He has even purloined lines from Ernest Hemingway.

The fact-checker told me, “Not only was the plagiarism more egregious than I had seen before, but it was shocking how unapologetic Hedges was when it was put in his face. He got very heavy-handed about it. He kept claiming that the people quoted in the Katz piece gave him the exact same quotes.”
According to Ross and the fact-checker, Hedges then tried to circumvent their questions by appealing privately to Harper’s publisher Rick MacArthur, who at the time was a personal friend.

Not someone to take morality lessons from I think.....

His speech isn't a morality preach.
Yes, and Melania had a problem with plagiarism, too

I got just past the 25 second mark...the part where he began with "When things get bad..." and talks about the "Elites retreat in their gated compounds...", when I stopped and did some looking around since I have no idea who this guy is.
Here's what I found...
His net worth is estimated at $114 million dollars. Chris Hedges - Net Worth, Salary, Age, Height, Bio, Wiki!
LOL!!
I'm thinking he's probably one of those Elites in their gated compounds.
Moving on...
The right: we hate rich elites
Also the right: lets make a rich elite President.
???
Quit making **** up. I didn't say I "hate rich elites".
Heck, that's more of a liberal thing, you know.
Pretty dark stuff and he's no fan of democrats, either.
A real eye-opener. Truth bombs galore.

You were saying how he's worth 114 million and he's an "elite." Therefore, you can't take him seriously.
Meanwhile, you found someone reportedly wirth more who's definitely elite and elecred him President.
Pretty dark stuff and he's no fan of democrats, either.

Chris Hedges has made a career of calling everyone to the right of him a fascist for decades. So this is just more of the same partisan hyperbolic bilgewater. Hedges' vacuousness is so great and powerful that not even light can escape it.

So you can't counter anything he stated and you're just here to blather?
OK.
He's a hypocrite. That's enough for me to dismiss him.

Can't be taken seriously as a critic of his fellow elites.
Like if Melania - whom you brought up - were to rail against women who get cosmetic surgery.
Gottit?

I didn't bring up Melania. Try reading.
You like elites as long as they're Republicans. Fine. Really, it is, but you can't go railing agsinst rich elites and then tell me to vote for one.
