Copycat or Slowpoke?

A story posted in the Observer on Sunday is remarkably similar to one provided by Creative Loafing on Wednesday.

Yet neither credits the other. I’m not saying that either was copied verbatim – to be fair, I didn’t read both verbatim in order to be able to tell. But it is odd when one news outlet publishes a story a few days after another, albeit less well regarded, news outlet, and doesn’t even mention that they aren’t the only one investigating or turning up interesting evidence.
