I thought legal issues had resulted from printing entire articles without permission? Didn’t FR face a lawsuit and incur a judgement over this very issue?

I agree with your premise, and don’t like the constant redirects either. But I also owe the article’s publisher some courtesy, and I am subject to the laws in this regard.

THe moderators keep a list of publications that must be excerpted. She is not on that list.

But I also owe the article’s publisher some courtesy, and I am subject to the laws in this regard. First she is not on the must excerpt list. Second, you have created a link to her site by posting here. This alone should improve her SEO. Third, you complied with the authorship courtesy by using her name as the author and back linking to her blog. If her article is any good, folks will click through to see what else she wrote.
