The Guardian | Arrêt sur Images

Agnès Chauveau has been suspended as executive director of the journalism school at the Institut d’études politiques de Paris, the university also known as Sciences Po. Chauveau used unattributed material in a radio program that landed as a blog post on Le Huffington Post, Kim Willsher reports in The Guardian.

The blog Arrêt sur Images discovered several instances of lifted text in Chauveau’s post. “I’ve forgotten to cite certain papers, but never intentionally,” Chauveau told Arrêt sur Images, “and I will rectify each instance that that causes a problem.”

Chauveau’s HuffPost story now carries a note saying it’s been updated with links and credit to the original sources.
