That’s the same NYT article above and, very usefully, not behind a paywall it seems. Good find. :grinning:

Thanks for the link, finally able to read the article. Couldn’t read from the earlier link on NYT site, I think i used up my quota 1-2 free articles a month.

One can sometimes get past the paywall when one uses Google.Com in the web address.

So someone has copied the text and used it elsewhere? Isn’t that a bit like plaig…Oh.

Elizabeth Haigh is undoubtedly Sharon Wee herself. Just looking to create fake news, get the Net buzzing, and up the sales of her book. Smart move. It worked.

I hope you’re kidding.
