Editor’s note: It was brought to The Daily’s attention that this review contained multiple instances of plagiarism from another Taylor Swift concert review posted by the Charlotte Observer on June 9.
Keaton Bell, the author, is a former Daily staff member who submitted this as a guest column. Daily staff members and contributors are trusted to act with complete integrity when submitting work, therefore, I neglected to check the article for plagiarism.
The Daily is committed to seeking truth and reporting it, and by publishing plagiarized work, I failed to uphold our organization’s standards.
