The mass media often call him “plagiarism hunter” (in German “Plagiatsj\u00e4ger”).[1][2][3]Table of ContentsBiography[edit]Public plagiarism allegations[edit]Publications[edit]External links[edit]References[edit]Biography[edit]Weber studied journalism and communication science at the University of Salzburg and subsequently worked in Salzburg as a journalist and university lecturer. In 2005 he completed his Habilitation at the University of Vienna.[4]  When Weber discovered in 2005 that a T\u00fcbingen theologian, in 2004, had copied approximately half of his doctoral thesis more or less verbatim from Weber’s own 1996 thesis, he launched a public media campaign to draw attention to the problem of plagiarism in academia. The T\u00fcbingen plagiarist had his doctoral degree retracted in July 2005.[5] In addition, he received a criminal court sentence in 2007.[6]In 2007, Weber co-authored a Google-critical study[7] and published the book “The Google-Copy-Paste-Syndrome”.[8]In 2011, Weber founded with Gerhard Fr\u00f6hlich (University of Linz) the “Initiative Transparente Wissenschaft” (also “AntiPlag Austria”),[9] which operates a website on Wikia.[10] There, suspicious cases of scientific misconduct in Austria can collaboratively be dealt with.[11]Public plagiarism allegations[edit]Weber has raised allegations against several high-profile public personalities. A media sensation was created by the allegations against the then Austrian Minister for Science and Research, Johannes Hahn (see “Discussion about his PhD thesis”), in 2007, claiming that in his doctoral thesis he had “copied page per page without proper reference”.[12]Publications[edit]Monographs (in German):Nachrichtenkonstruktion im Boulevardmedium.
