Absolutely correct. It is not the website that posts the articles first that get the best ranking in google, it is the copy of the article that has the most IBLs.
My site gets crawled by google daily, and most of the time when I put an article out for reprint, it is documented by google on my own site days or weeks ahead of the site that ranks higher than my site in the search results for that article.
The Wikipedia benefits in the same way, but ironically, Wikipedia is most often relying only upon internal IBLs, from within their own site.
