I can’t wait for someone in 2077 to make a documentary about this by plagiarizing an article that goes hour by hour.

[-] deus@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

I have a feeling that someone will later make a 4-hour-long video essay calling them out for it

[-] Arelin@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 year ago

Okay this is clearly referencing something. Who is it

[-] Moxvallix@sopuli.xyz 27 points 1 year ago

Hbomberguy called out Internet Historian for blatant plagiarism.

[-] Arelin@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 year ago

Internet Historian of all people? Well damn :(

[-] drislands@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I was really disappointed to learn it too. It was blatant -- the entire script is ripped from a well-written article about the experience, verbatim except for a few words swapped around.

Except he made it a lot more entertaining so it's a case of I don't care

[-] matt1126@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

If he had gotten permission from the original author/site about dramatising and animating it I don't think anyone would have had a problem. But taking someone else's work and passing it off as your own without permission is what people are upset about.

To his credit, this was the only found bit of plagiarism on his channel. The other channels he calls out are wayyyy worse. But it’s blatant word for word plagiarism.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Not quite, Internet Historian also plagiarized parts of his Costa Concordia video. Did hbomberguy actually say that these were the only examples of plagiarism on his channel?

[-] Zehzin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

IIRC he said it was the only plagiarism he found but I'm not skimming a 4 hour video to make sure.

[-] FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That wouldn't be very nova, choom.
