I haven't tried to test what you are doing, but I do know NYTimes
sometimes will request you for login after certain number of
continuous requests. Also see this tweet: http://tweetree.com/posts/1629269063
. But it's odd to see 301 as a returned status code.

BTW, what are you trying to achieve by fetching the article? If you
don't need fulltext, you can look into the NYTimes Article api:
