ScorpFromHell writes: "Blogger Waldo Jaquith alleges in his blog that Chris Andersen of 'The Long Tail' fame & Wired magazine's editor-in-chief has apparently plagiarized content from various sources, predominantly Wikipedia, without attribution for his soon to be published book:
"In the course of reading Chris Anderson's new book, Free: The Future of a Radical Price (Hyperion, $26.99), for a review in an upcoming issue of VQR, we have discovered almost a dozen passages that are reproduced nearly verbatim from uncredited sources.
... Most of the passages, but not all, come from Wikipedia.
