The "web" link below the title links there.

  The "web" link just links to a google search for the phrase "Apple Veteran Overseeing Electric-Car Project Leaving Company". At the moment Google is surfacing the WSJ article as the first link in a section called "In the news", but that may not be true for anyone looking at this story in the future.

    For every article I've ever tried, entering the exact phrase of the WSJ article results in the top Google result being the article in question. I think it's pretty safe given WSJ's SEO work.

      And for virtually every WSJ post to HN, I cannot access copy via Google search. HN don't take kindly to flagging. But really, either play social or go home.

        If you really enjoy reading the WSJ, you could just pay for it, you know. Then no "hacks" are necessary.

          If WSJ want to restrict readership to subscribers only, there's no need to feed them hits via social platforms. There's a quid pro quo here. And no, actually, I'm not interested in supporting Murdoch/NewsCorp in the least.

    But who is to say that "in the future" another more recent article may be more relevant to they're looking for?
