#11 So Katie Couric did the one-minute commentary on the joys of getting her first library card, but the piece was not original. So Katie didn't plagiarize, because the piece that appeared under her name was actually written by someone else, not her!
More Fake but Acurate

#12 Katie read the story as if it were HER library card. But it wasn't. Now they fired the person who plagarized it from the WSJ. But even if the story hadn't been plagarized, someone other than Katie made up a story that Katie read about 'her' library card.

Boggle.
