Odone undone (ish)

Bloglines is an easy way to track those blogs you like to keep an eye on. It does, however, strip out the formatting of the original post - which can have unfortunate side-effects.

For example, today in Daniel Finkelstein’s Tuesday comment round-up I was a little startled to see this article highlighted:

Cristina Odone: (The Daily Telegraph) – You can’t shame a dodgy father by naming him Dominic Lawson
A moot point, really.

To be boringly fair, here’s the context:
Irwin Stelzer: (The Daily Telegraph) – Brown’s tax and spend would have stunned the Soviet Union Cristina Odone: (The Daily Telegraph) – You can’t shame a dodgy father by naming him Dominic Lawson: (The Independent) – I asked General Pinochet...
UPDATE: Seems I'm not the only one to have done a double-take.

The other problem I find is strikethrough which disappears.
