More on national outlets stealing local outlets' scoops

Here's another example of a national media outlet reporting on a local media outlet's scoop and not giving them credit. My hometown newspaper, The Davis Enterprise, broke the news of Iranian students being barred from boarding U.S.-bound flights on Sept. 17. The New York Times picked up the story two days later and didn't give credit to the local reporter. They eventually did, however, after some backlash on Twitter.

Mr. Abdollahpour’s account was published in The Davis Enterprise, a California newspaper, earlier this week.
