I am talking about this post where the writer does not write anything himself. Just copy and paste a few paragraphs from the article and the link to the source, no effort done and creates a post that look like a quality post with zero effort.
Does not it come under plagiarism?

In this case, the user provided the source of the news, so it cannot be considered plagiarized because the owner was cited.
In other cases, even if you cite the original author, copying his words and pasting them into yours is considered plagiarism. This is mostly applicable to the educational sector. This is a forum where we're all here to learn and be enlightened; we don't need that strict rule that applies to educational institutions here.
