Probably not. The quoting of a small portion of a copyrighted work for commentary or review purposes is generally considered "fair use" and not a copyright violation. As with all things legal, it is impossible to get a clear black and white definition of "fair use," but I think we (or more specifically, the web site owners) are well within the bounds of "fair use."
