The Miami Herald fired dance and music critic Octavio Roca for copying some passages he wrote for a newspaper where he previously worked. “When confronted, he sought to justify his recycling by likening himself to a college professor who delivers the same lecture to different students. And he argued that, because he was repeating his own words, he hadn’t committed plagiarism, which is the theft of another’s work.” But Herald editors, standing reason on its head, dismiss Roca for commiting what… stealing opinions from himself?
