In 2002, the since defunct ''[[Weekly Standard]]'' questioned the sourcing of the book, ''The Fitzgeralds and the Kennedys,'' by the liberal Democratic historian Doris Kearns Goodwin (born 1943), a former contributor to the [[PBS]] ''NewsHour.'' ''The Weekly Standard'' reported that Goodwin did not provide attribution of material taken from three other books, including ''Times to Remember,'' by Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald Kennnedy (1890-1995), the mother of the slain [[John F. Kennedy|Kennedy]] brothers, and ''Kathleen Kennedy: Her Life and Times,'' a study of Kathleen Cavendish, Marchioness of Hartington, written by Lynne McTaggart.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.weeklystandard.com/a-historian-and-her-sources/article/2088|author=Bo Crader|title=A Historian and Her Sources|date=January 28, 2002|publisher=''[[Weekly Standard|The Weekly Standard]]''|accessdate=March 23, 2020}}</ref>

According to McTaggart, Goodwin took a third of her book without making attribution. She said that she felt that Goodwin had "lifted out the heart and guts of somebody else's individual expression." McTaggart and Goodwin entered into a "private settlement"' over the matter. In an article in ''[[Time]]'' [[magazine]], Goodwin said, "Though my footnotes repeatedly cited Ms. McTaggart's work, I failed to provide quotation marks for phrases that I had taken verbatim ... The larger question for those of us who write history is to understand how citation mistakes can happen."<ref>Doris Kearns Goodwin: "How I Caused that Story," ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]],''January 27, 2002.</ref>

In its analysis of the controversy, the liberal ''[[Slate]]'' magazine reported that Goodwin failed to correct the problem of plagiarism in subsequent editions of her book.<ref name=tnoah>{{cite web|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/chatterbox/2002/01/how_to_curb_the_plagiarism_epidemic.html|title=How To Curb the Plagiarism Epidemic|author=Timothy Noah|publisher=''Slate'' magazine|date=January 28, 2002|accessdate=March 23, 2020}}</ref> ''Slate'' also claimed that  multiple passages in Goodwin's book on the [[Franklin D.

''[[Los Angeles Times|The Los Angeles Times]]'' reported problems with ''The Fitzgeralds and the Kennedys.''
