I do this already for so many sites these days. And it's fairly simple. I wouldn't mind an extension that automated this for me.

I use ublock origin for this. Just use the dropper to pick the element.

You can also block elements by text content [1], for those that did not know. I ran into a site that tried to counter uBlock by randomized class names, among other things, but was able to target it properly that way.

For news sites that do this, you can use textise.net to render a text-only version of the page which will have what you want (the article text).
