In fact he had not written anything during the year the award represented. The resulting conflagration created a whirlwind of internet activity looking into every crevasse of the winner's claimed past accomplishments. As additional discrepancies were uncovered (most were exaggerations) the proverbial hotseat grew unbearable and the winner withdrew his claim to the award.

What I never understand in these cases is that surely the effort involved in reading other work, selecting the parts to copy and bolting them together into a coherent piece of writing is at least as much as it takes to just write something original in the first place.
