Scandal at the Times
Blair worked alongside reporter Macarena Hernandez years before she accused him of plagiarizing her work. After Hernandez found blatant similarities between an article Blair wrote for the Times on April 26, 2003, and a story she had written for the San Antonio Express-News, she contacted editors in New York.The New York Times conducted a thorough investigation of Blair's articles and found several instances of plagiarism in pieces written in late 2002 and early 2003. After Blair resigned, the Times blamed management failures for Blair's ease of promotion through the newspaper's hierarchy. The affirmative action policy at the Times was also questioned, as Blair is an African-American.Slate: The Jayson Blair Project (May 8, 2003)
