T. Ellison, Kyle Mills, Mark Pryor, and Debra Webb. The Big Thrill is the magazine of […]

Would Jordan Fox Plagiarize?

Would Jordan Fox plagiarize? Surely not, right? The star of the Hunt For Truth Serial is a hardworking journalist, and honesty is her middle name. Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines plagiarism as the act of stealing and passing off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own.
