We took a lot of stick<\/a> a few weeks ago after our exclusive publication of Our Man Elli in Israel<\/a>‘s exposé<\/a> of the Israel Baseball League, a day before the story was set to be published in Jewish weeklies across America and the globe<\/a>. It was a case of crossed signals and time zones, but it warranted some navel-gazing and chin-stroking at place like Jim Romenesko’s j-school newsmedia site<\/a> (you know, the one that ignores us except when the tables are turned).<\/p>\n

But now we’ve got something that grinds our gears– and challenge the mainstream news media to play fair.<\/p>\n

On Monday, we posted a story<\/a> and alerted<\/a> Romenesko, after some schmuck (left<\/em>) at the powerful Chicago Tribune lifted, ripped off and plagiarized<\/em> Elli Wohlgelernter’s sidebar<\/a> story that we also ran exclusively on August 28th. Joel Greenberg<\/a> (left<\/em>) took Elli’s translation of the interview with former Major Leaguer and IBL team manager Ken Holtzman, copied it<\/em> for a September 16th Trib article<\/a> and claimed it as his own.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
