The facts are super complicated. For one thing, supposedly the author herself wrote to the journal after-the-fact acknowledging her error. Whether she forgot the quote marks and citation part initially or what, she was not careful in such matters. Also she only had like four papers? It seems like there is smoke there, I am saying, regardless of whether or not there is an actual fire, hence perhaps not solely a political hit.
Edit: to anyone who wants to down-vote this, feel free, though you'd have a better chance at changing my mind if you leave a comment with a link for me something to read? Otherwise, I have read at least a little about this - have you? If you are interested in a real discussion rather than reinforcing your preferred set of facts inside of a mere echo chamber, let me know...
