Is it the same for everyone else?

I mean if I cut and paste a news item it breaks up in the sentences.  I have had to take the space out between words to avoid a line break.  I know it copies all the ads and pix, but I can cut those out - although it takes time and even cancelling the rich text doesnt help, well not that I recall anyway.

Entering paragraphs with the usual 'hit enter twice' gives a HUGE gap in the text - but I understand not to do that now, although I see others still do and it takes up yards of purple box space as a result lol

More concerned about how the cut and paste from news items works ... I LIKE to see the pictures but not the adverts etc and it takes time to cut all the peripheral stuff out!

All seems a bit odd. :(
