Dave - try to use rn to read the article and cancel it with a 'C' - that sends out a message that will can the article on any system. I would add to the people that write the news software that this might be another case where the "squelch" message capability would be useful - i.e. put out a global kill for this message that will intercept it the moment it arrives on any site, even if the squelch gets there ahead of the actual article.
