The issue is apparent with brand new stories (the "Top Business
Stories" section containing the JPM and Crozier links currently
contain invalid UTF-8). I could understand why older Latin-1-encoded
story content could cause a problem if they are not converted to UTF-8
before being blindly entered into a new UTF-8-based CMS, but why are
new stories/links not being handled correctly?
