Aljazeera America plagiarism?

Rana sent me this: "Take a look at this plagiaristic paraphrasing from the new Al Jazeera America:

Original Reuters article:"Taken together, the polls suggest that so far, the growing crisis in Syria, and the emotionally wrenching pictures from an alleged chemical attack in a Damascus suburb this week, may actually be hardening many Americans' resolve not to get involved in another conflict in the Middle East."

Al Jazeera America article: "The poll, taken Aug. 19-23, reveals a decline in support for U.S. action since Aug. 13, when an earlier survey showed that 30 percent of Americans backed intervention if chemical weapons were used. The two polls seem to suggest that the wrenching pictures of victims and the growing conflict in Syria have only hardened the resolve of many Americans not to get involved." 

Glad to see they are providing high quality original content from the start!"
