It's not theft in either example. Also, neither example is reselling the original product. In the case of news article, access to them is generally not even restricted, and they're out there for everyone to read.

The example just does not apply because AIs are only learning from the source content; they're not redisplaying or reselling the source content, not even as a part of a whole.
