        Yeaaah they bought reviews to get popular and straight-up plagiarized a bunch of stuff from other podcasts and stories. There’s a podcast called “Let’s Taco ‘bout True Crime” with an episode called “Let’s taco ‘bout the crime junkie plagiarism scandal” that goes into it. Or just search “Crime Junkie Plagiarism” to find some great articles and threads. Maybe they cite sources instead of verbatim copying others’ work now, but I can’t stand to listen.

          oh oh. I thought you were saying the comment was plagerizing true crime and I was like the stalking leading to violence thing has been around and is basically common knowledge. So that was my misunderstanding. it was all about the podcast and not about the comment or commentator.

      The source may be bad, but their point is still true.
