The IGN Plagiarism Fiasco -- CLS Side Quest

Watching the professional destruction of someone is never comfortable and never easy. But if you tilt your head just so, and look at things through a certain lens, terrible situations can often be instructive. The Filip Miucin-IGN fiasco that engulfed games media over the last week taught us that while one person’s selfishness and laziness is a story in and of itself, it’s the potential collateral damage -- and all of the innocent people caught up in it -- that matter most.
