The Courier-Mail columnist and Sky News host Peter Gleeson has been caught out plagiarising for the third time this month, filling almost half his column with the unattributed reporting of a regional ABC journalist.

The plagiarism was identified by Australians for a Murdoch Royal Commission (AFMRC), who have been trawling through Gleeson’s work since he was caught out twice this month for similar offences – including by Guardian Australia, which revealed he filled 62% of an article with copy from a Queensland parliament factsheet.
