A really good example of intertextuality is when someone
plagiarizes someone else’s work as their own.
You see more people doing this instead of doing the work
themselves. I think that most people
take this seriously within schools and if someone is caught doing it them they
get a punishment and for college you can even get kicked out. This seems to almost be as common as people
bootlegging movies or making mash ups as their own.
A second example of intertextuality is when people copy
movies onto DVD’s when they are not yet out on DVD (bootlegging). I know multiple people who do this and they
make these bootleg DVD’s and sell them to people for profit. I do not see many people doing this as much
but I know there are quite a few people who do this to make easy money.
I've always heard about the bootlegging of DVD's. That issues is always gets attention.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you we see a lot of Plagiarism in todays culture. It is not originality if we are stealing or making a knock off of someone else's work. Originality helps it sound better.
