Here you prove that you have absolutely no clue how academia works.
Research is published in peer-reviewed academic journals and other
academics in the same field read your paper and evaluate it. So, if
you've got plagiarized stuff in there, it WILL be found out. And, since
that's the worst sin an academic can commit, you will get fired. It has
nothing to do with any media person or any spotlights. It's not
something that will (or can) be swept under the rug.
