In the case of a blogger, it is their own content. So, if a reporter from the NYT posts an excerpted piece from his own article here, shouldn't he also be expected to post the full content because he's the author of the content?

No. In the case of a blogger, see My previous post on the matter. In the case of a reporter or reporterette from a major publication, their articles are the properties of their respective employers, and as such can not be posted on other sites or in other publications without their express consent. Good luck with that.

That's my point. "Without their express consent" of the employers is the issue. And yet, you just accept it when it is a deep pocket like the NYT.

And yet you don't accept it when the "employer" (aka content owner) is a blogger. You try to bully the blogger into posting entirely his own property when you won't bully the deep pocket to do the same.
