As was posted earlier, the contract that subscribers agree to 
disallows posting of their information to newsgroups or mailing lists 
in the case of WSJ and most pay-per-view sites. In addition, what is 
the full context of that brief statement you pulled out of "copyright 
law"? That part of the law refers to the ability to "quote" part of a 
story, not the piece in its entirety, which requires permission from 
author/publication or whomever owns the rights.

And finally, though not legal, pure Netiquette also says quote part 
of the article and include a link to the whole article. Although this 
has no legal basis the above statements do. If you go to an 
"all-you-can-eat" restaurant and start sneaking plates of food out to 
your family and friends that is stealing. Taking copy from a pay site 
and giving it to thousands of people is not different, just easier.
