Domenech appears to have copied from National Review column

Domenech’s column, entitled “Not on my campaign trail,” appeared in the Oct. 27, 2000 edition of The Flat Hat. It did not appear on The Flat Hat’s online archives. Webloggers noted similarities between some of Domenech’s pieces on the Flat Hat’s online archives and pieces on Salon.com, by writer P.J. O’Rourke and other sources.

Within the column, Domenech writes about a hypothetical run for President of the United States. In the column, he writes about former College Writer-in-Residence Sam Kashner, who wrote an article for GQ magazine in 2000 about alleged affairs with female students.

“I wonder what Kashner would describe if he wrote himself into a novel — ‘Sporting his mature Jon Bon Jovi haircut and his even-sensitive-souls-can-have-big-pecs black ribbed T-shirt, Kashner exudes an air of jock-poet ennui — ‘Not only have I read Proust, but I can also kick your ass,’” Domenech writes.

A similar passage appeared in Goldberg’s May 13, 1999 edition of the “Goldberg File,” printed on National Review Online. Goldberg describes a man he sees at the coffee house where he is writing the column.
