On January 7, an Amsterdam District Court denied (source
document in Dutch) a journalist's request to order an internet
search engine to delete a search result showing a newspaper article
on plagiarism committed by the journalist. In its opinion, the
Court reasoned that: (i) the journalist is still active; (ii) the
information in the article is relevant for the journalist's
target audience; and (iii) prospective employers should be able to
judge the severity of the offense committed by the
journalist.
