Larry, Melanie etc., I will add what *I know, 
Newsline gets its content in one of two ways, 
Either it comes directly from the paper, or they 
get it from the web, generally using RSS.  So, 
they can only present what they are given by 
paper, or what is on-line.  Not everything is put 
on-line by all papers, and some syndicated stuff, 
they can't put up because of legal agreements with the syndicator.
