The accusations of plagiarism were first raised by bloggers at Deterritorial Support Group as well as Brian Whelan, editor of Yahoo! Ireland who claimed that some of Hari’s conversations included content from earlier interviews and writings of his interviewees. For instance, a 2009 interview with Afghan women’s rights advocate Malalai Joya included quotations from her book Raising my Voice in a way that appeared like they were directly addressed to Hari. Hari initially denied that he was guilty and claimed that the quotes that were not attributed were meant to clarify the situation and not to pass off the thoughts of someone else as his own. He would later admit that his conduct was “completely wrong” and that “when I interviewed people I often presented things that had been said to other journalists or had been written in books as if they had been said to me, which was not truthful.” In the end, Hari was banned for two months by The Independent, and shortly after resigning from the position.

Cohen also wrote that Hari’s own Wikipedia entry had been edited by Rose “to make him seem one of the essential writers of our times”. After “David Rose” was later shown to be a pseudonym of Johann Hari, Hari made a public apology for his behaviour.
In 2011, Hari was the subject of two scandals involving his conduct as a journalist. First, he was accused of plagiarism by including in his articles quotes that his interviewees had previously given to other journalists, as if they were the product of his own interviewing.
