Very helpful, although it is depressing to see Zu Gutt getting his own wiki for this.Steve Saidemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881915512311951902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8446351548038522890.post-87863836913496544642011-02-21T05:10:47.543-05:002011-02-21T05:10:47.543-05:00Dear Steve,

This crisis is far from over: Die Zeit now has it that he might have not written the dissertation at all:<br /><br />http://www.zeit.de/politik/2011-02/guttenberg-ghostwriter?page=1<br /><br />Also Der Spiegel says that he might have (mis)used the services of the German parliament's research department when he was an MP, and cut and pasted some 10 pages of their work in the dissertation. This is a pretty serious accusation because it entails misusing public office for private use.<br /><br />http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,746573,00.html<br /><br />Moreover he is being badly advised through this crisis (damaging press conference Friday). With the CDU taking the worst beating of their history in the Landtag elections in Hamburg yesterday (although KTzG is from the CSU), it is not looking good for zu Guttenberg right now...<br /><br />Here is a link to the GuttenPlag Wiki according to which some 68.70% of the dissertation is plagiarized. <br />http://de.guttenplag.wikia.com/wiki/GuttenPlag_Wiki<br /><br />Schöne Grüße from Germany!Jess Fortinnoreply@blogger.com
