    Introducing the "But honestly, Monica" scandal (and settle down --Lewinsky ain't involved):

    I know it's just a friggin' cooking magazine, but there are so many levels of wrongness to the above quote coming from a professional editor...where does one even begin?

    Apparently Cooks Source steals from EVERYONE, including the food network.

    Is Giada going to have to cut a bitch?

    Edit: Holy hell, I'm looking at this thread here, and they've stolen from EVERYWHERE! Disney, Paula Dean, NPR, Martha Stewart...

    There's gonna be nothing left of this editor.

    Edit 2: There's now a Google Docs Spreadsheet doccumenting over ONE HUNDRED FIFTY cases of reproduction of someone else's work by Cook's Source. That's... thats gonna hurt.
