I have a situation in which I need to use Views (or something similar) to display a table showing story titles and authors to 'anonymous' without giving 'anonymous' privileges to access the actual story content. Kind of a "teaser". So do any of you kind folk have any bright ideas?
I am running 4.7.3 with the taxonomy_access and views modules.

I am pretty sure this is not possible. The node access system is pretty much an all or nothing device. Either a user can see a node, or they can't.
About the only method of doing this is to create your own custom module that will display the required nodes, and not use db_rewrite_sql() when doing the select.

As Michelle mentioned, premium.module can do that kind of thing. You can also create a small hook_nodeapi somewhere that does a drupal_access_denied() (or do a drupal_goto to a login page or some such) on $op == 'view' if the user should not have access to actually view the content (but the content will then still appear in all lists everywhere).
premium.module might actually already do that.
