Should'nt the editors be also Slashdot's readers? If this was the case, they would'nt post duplicates for at least a week interval.
I remember myself seeing duplicates of stories over a year apart. These are normal, but within a week...
I recommend an improvement to the slashcode: an editor cannot post new articles until he has read every articles for the past week. I am sure that the slashcode monitors what readers read, right?
I don't think that a journalist with basic professionalism value would have a problem with that. It is normal to perform some research before publishing.
