Facts: Obama uses words from previous speeches in which he was plagiarizing. Clinton views this as an unpolitical action to get voters to support Obama's campaign.
Ethics: Clinton tries to make Obama look bad to get voters to support her campaign. She also believes that Obama is using libel.
Principles: It involves not only libel, but slander also because Obama used the written material and spoke out to the public by following the script his writers wrote for him.
I would decide this issue as a speechwriter and as a news reporter by not using another persons work and saying that it is your own.
