For WSJ if you click the 'web' link above you'll get taken to the Google result page for this article.

Another way is add /amp/ to the URL before /articles (ie http://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/birchbox-cuts-about-12-of-st...).

Sometimes it will do a subscription request but there are ways around that as well if you look at the network inspector to see what it's requesting..

I wish paywalled articles would link automatically to the web link, it would save time.

Click the web link. Then click news on the Google search page.

Search for the article in Google to get around the paywall.

It still throws up the paywall for me. This article probably has the same info minus the annoyance: http://www.crainsnewyork.com/article/20160628/TECHNOLOGY/160...
