It's a New York Times article so you can't quote it in its entirety. You have to excerpt it and link to the full version.

As far as I know, there are no posting restrictions regarding articles from the NY Times.

Currently, only the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times have an excerpt only requirement @ FR.

There's no problem with reproducing NYT articles on FR.

(And, as I like to point out, FR seems to be the only site on the net where the LAT and WP have actually gone out of their way to stop reposting of their stories. There are a number of leftie sites that repost WAP and LP articles in their entirety every single day, and the LAT and WP never bats an eyelid. I thought selective prosecution of so-called "copyright violations" was grounds for losing said copyright. I don't know why we've never pursued that angle.)
