Suggestion: If you are going to continue with the Highlight tool, a warning and explicit instructions should be included, maybe like the licenses agreements for programs, to be 'signed': agree or disagree (and not get to use it then, if disagree).

I have been trying myself to be more original or include observations instead of using a lot of a story.

Often I do include perhaps more than I should, but...I do that to spur interest and hope readers will follow the links to get the whole reports from original sites. and maybe follow the sidebars and links, too. I do.

This whole NowPublic is an on-going learning experience, even for professional journalists and the staff. And I hope an open and continuing dialogue continues with all the different people and cultures across the world without so much rancor and with much more tolerance. Not everyone is handy with computers and editing stuff.

This has been the most enlightening news source (or global roundup of news) I've ever seen. Let's all try to keep it that way.
