Right-wing radio talker Monica Crowley caught plagiarizing.
Right-wing radio talker Monica Crowley caught plagiarizing.
A few weeks ago, the site 23/6 made a parody of the “You Can’t Have Alex” MoveOn.org ad. The parody featured Laurie Kilmartin, who explained today, “We called it ‘John McCain, Meet William,’ with me as the mom and my son as ‘William.’” But on right-wing radio host Monica Crowley’s June 21 radio show, Crowley took credit for Kilmartin’s parody ad, claiming she made the ad to make fun of MoveOn.org:
She began tearing apart the MoveOn ad and she played our parody ad as she went to commercial, without crediting us. … When Monica came back from commercial, she played our parody again but this time she claimed she created it. “We put together a little spoof there of that MoveOn.org where the woman holds up her baby…”
As Kilmartin notes, this isn’t the first time Crowley has been caught “stealing.”

Everyone gets it… TP, PLEASE pull the plug!
Crowley is another blonde airhead with a big mouth – perfect for a repugnican shill.

wtf is wrong with you, what are you talking about?.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:19 pmEh. Plagiarism – just another form of Wingnut Welfare. ;o)
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:20 pmThe tip off was she put it together She couldn’t organize a one car funeral.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:22 pmAw, go easy on Spamer, Belac.
Clearly, this person is lonely and looking for “new friends”.
Hey, Spamer, yer lookin’ fer dates, I’d suggest LGF or Red State, or “www.RepublicanPeopleMeet.com”, or “www.republicanpassions.com”
Wid a personality like yers, yer gonna have a full dance card in no time!
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:24 pmNice work, belac. :-)
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:25 pmLazy AND stupid? Whodathunkit from a reichwing shill.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:28 pmBut republics are not capable of creative thought, so what are they going to do? Just stand there and call people that are smarter than them names and spread lies about them….???
Oh, forgot, that is exactly what they do.

major props to 23/6, great video!!
NOPE!
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:39 pmI am hoping that the person she plagiarized from has contacted Crowley’s radio station and threatened to file a lawsuit. Something needs to be done to stop these evil people and their lies.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:40 pmPlagiarism is cost effective! Replaces a hell of a lot of Rethug brain power!
Just a random off-thread comment about the Rethugs and their political correct use and misuse of our language. When my Dear Departed Daddy told me one or the other of us was going to use the hoe handle I knew he meant I was to be the user or the usee. Today when someone tells a Rethug to use the ho handle he immediately texts his prostitute using her professional name.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:40 pmDone, signed up and escrowed $25.00.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:41 pmBye bye XXX
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:43 pmCorrection to Number 15.
Last sentence: change “her” to “her/his.” After all we were speaking of Rethugs!
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:44 pmJohn Kerry Says: Do me a favor libs! Get a copy of the transcript and listen again. Have your ears checked first!
I got the transcript and I’ve been listening really hard, like you said… but I don’t hear anything.
Do you need someone to read it to you?
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:57 pmAnother reich-wing nut caught plagiarizing?
I’m shocked, I tell you. Absolutely shocked.
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:04 pmMonica is in every sense a zero with nothing between her ears but air. In that, she is like all of her sicko ilk. She doesn’t have the brains of a door stopper, so she couldn’t possible create something on her own. All she is capable of doing is parroting the other rightwingnutjobs like Hannity whom she adores, and Beck etc. Monica is a total waste of space, and electricity anytime she appears on TV. She is ‘more to be pitied than pick on’.
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:18 pmNeo-Cons just make stuff up if they can’t steal something to use.
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:18 pmSo, of course she will be fired for her stealing, right? I mean that’s what the law and order party of the repubs stands for correct? Law and order, submission, dominance, bullying, honor, etc…All those stand up characteristics which separate them from the DFH.
So, I’m guessing she won’t get fired…
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:22 pmWhat’s the big deal? All this right wingers do is repeat the same crap over and over again anyway. It’s all lies, does it really matter where it originates from?

July 3rd, 2008 at 3:31 pmHey John Kerry… I just listened again, and Monica says:
“We put together a little spoof there of that MoveOn.org where the woman holds up her baby…”
in what way is that not taking credit for someone elses work?
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:31 pmNever heard of her but the photo does bring up a rude but relevant question — what is it with the she-wingers and peroxide? Are they all auditioning for Fox “News”?
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:55 pmJohn Kerry
White trash.
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:56 pmHey Trajan, (aka John Kerry), not getting enough (or any ) traffic on that trash website of yours?
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:59 pmMonica Crowley was using the royal ‘WE’ when she said,
Anyone whose POV she supports, she automatically speaks for, dontcha know?
July 3rd, 2008 at 4:23 pmMonica Crowley is just another cheerleader for right-wing stupidity. She is quite cute and shows her great legs
July 3rd, 2008 at 6:44 pmon John McLaughlin’s weekly political talk show, The McLaughlin Group, so she is not a total loss, at least visually.
Plagiarism is a serious crime. Why does this woman still have a job?
July 3rd, 2008 at 9:26 pmCrowley tell mcchimpy she can have your son.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:07 pm.
In the entertainment industry, it is considered a COMPLIMENT to mimic/borrow/steal another professionals work. The truly GREAT ENTERTAINERS know how to shape this pilfered material with their craft as their own.
Was MoveOn.org copy writing this?
‘Cuz then, THAT’S a crime!
If not, it’s a compliment!
