Unit 4 - My views on plagerism

When I first started back to school, I was told plagiarism is the devil. Which it really isn't a good thing, but wow, I had never been to a school that will fail you on a paper for forgetting to cite a book or online article. I never even knew how to find an author for an online source until I started with Kaplan. Internet sites are the worst to try and cite. They can have a million different authors if it is a blog site or none at all (which is the majority that I find). I know it's not good to write something that and claim it as your own, but the plagiarism Nazis are a little out of control. I don't want of offend anyone, I am just writing what I feel about the subject.
