That reminds me of a similar bug we had with the Ubuntu Touch webbrowser-app, where text selection on touch devices wasn't working for nytimes.com (bug #1573620). This was fixed by adding a specific (android-like) user-agent override for that site. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a similar issue where nytimes.com does funny things to disallow selection based on user-agent detection.
