My guess is that WSJ exposes the whole article to the crawler that Outline is running (and other crawlers as well) so that they can have high SEO / discoverability. However, that can be exploited to get the article from out behind the paywall. Sometimes they catch on (archive.is used to be a reliable way to do this but it's no more, eg http://archive.is/MhLCX)
