Jayson Blair was a 27 year old year reporter, working for the New York Times. Blair lied and cheated his way through his job. He wrote articles with ideas and stories that were not his. He took credit for other people's stories as well. Jayson had to leave his job at the New York Times. I believe Jayson deserved having to quit his job. Plaigiarm is against the law and he should not be able to do that.
One of the articles I found, this is a quote I received from it: "Jayson Blair, a young Times reporter, lied and faked and cheated his way through story after story -- scores of them, for years. He fabricated sources, plagiarized material from other publications, and pretended to be places he never went. The problem, once fully investigated and made public by The Times itself, brought down not only the reporter but also The Times's executive editor and managing editor. For a while, it even made The Times a laughingstock in late-night comedy routines."
