Shocked

I
am an avid reader of the Blanket and was shocked to
hear of this plagiarism.
When I read of these allegations I was shocked and
my immediate thought was that the Blanket has so many
powerful and intelligent writers it would never deliberately
publish such material.
I read many different websites who also feature writings
from the Blanket so they must also recognise your
professionalism and integrity.
My only hope is that your apology is accepted with
the same spirit as it was given and that what has
happened is not used as a means to try and damage
your reputation.
On a personal basis I will continue to read the Blanket
as here in England there is little or no news eminating
from the North and what does filter through is unreliable.
May I take this opportunity to ask how I may make
a donation towards the Blanket?
