Harvard paper suspends 'plagiarists'

Harvard University's student newspaper, which this spring broke a plagiarism story that prompted a U.S. publisher to pull a best-seller off the shelves, suspended two staffers in the past week for plagiarism.

The Harvard Crimson on Sunday suspended an undergraduate cartoonist after finding that at least four of her cartoons resembled work previously published elsewhere. The decision comes the week after it suspended a columnist for failing to properly cite material drawn from an online magazine.
