Like you said it would take a lot of work to fix, but they would also be either making the whole site open or cutting off the Google bot from the complete stories.

It’s a very touchy subject these days though. Not so sure that Google are still so lax, given all the flak they’ve taken of late.

Google clearly knew about it. A few weeks back when someone dragged it up, it seems like WMW have made some slight changes. The New York Times also does this. I believe Google are a bit lax when it comes to certain content. Well, webmasterworld was doing this for years. Google clearly knew about it.
