Creating controversy versus being controversial
Copeland writes controversial articles, but herself is not a controversial journalist.
Creating controversy deals with the content of journalist's writing. Being controversial has to do with the personal life of the reporter herself.
Compare: Ann Coulter's editorial writing and statements to the media to support those writing are controversial, but their is little about her personal life which is truly controversial. In contrast, Deborah Norville's journalism on the Today show was fairly straight-ahead, but the fact that she was perceived as ousting Jane Pauley was controversial.
