I was doing an analysis on one of my competitors. I know he is using wordpress for his blog. When I came across his news overview page I encounterd the following structure in the HTML:

HTML Code:
<article>
 <h2>Link to newspage 1</h2>
 <div> All the content also found on newspage 1</div>
</article>
<article>
 <h2>Link to newspage 2</h2>
 <div> All the content also found on newspage 2</div>
</article>
etc...
Each header of an article tag contains a links to detailed newspage.The newspage contains the same content as displayed on the news overview page.

Is this a valid structure seo-wise?
You would think this is considered duplicate content or am I wrong?

    If they don't use excerpts, then it's duplicate content , but not 100% duplicate because the news overview page contains different posts and therefore is largely different from any single post it links to, even though 100% of that post's content exists on the news overview page.
