One solution would be to load those links from environment variables, similar to how it's done with API access keys and other sensitive data. This would mildly inconvenience the devs by having to copy the links to those types of content by hand and set the vars before running the tests, but none of the "infringing" links would be present in the repo itself.
Reminded me of the Polish "Scottish Cafe" I learned about just recently (mathematicians-only, though!): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Caf%C3%A9
The fact that it's there to begin with implies it was noteworthy enough to include it, and the choice of including something versus not including is a value judgement. If instead the title read, "New York tech entrepreneur found decapitated wearing expensive suit", it would be more likely to strike people as odd, but isn't it essentially the same thing?
