That's quite amusing. I wonder how they figure out what a signature line
is? As someone who writes software for a living I'm always amused to see
new ways for software authors have helpfully shot themselves in the foot.
As far as I am aware (and "News" is not my field so I'm ready to be
additionally educated) a News item is simply text, with no implied
interpretation of any part of the item.
