A reporter is no longer with NBC News after the network discovered 11 of her articles “did not meet our standards for original material.”
The network issued a note to readers on Tuesday announcing the discovery.
“The articles contained passages from other news organizations that were used without attribution,” NBC News explained.
The note continues, “In all cases, the passages were not central to the stories, but instead contained supplemental or background material that did not represent original reporting.”
NBC News removed the passages that were plagiarized.
“Maintaining the trust of our readers and viewers is essential to NBC News, and our work must always meet the highest standards of our profession,” the network said.
