A couple things come to mind... (I'm away from the office, so I can't easily
delve into the problem.)

1) You're using incompatible handlers. Did you download and install the
tarball containing all the handlers? That tarball is for the previous version
of News Clipper. You can try deleting the handlers you downloaded, which are
stored in your ~/.NewsClipper/NewsClipper/Handler directory.

2) Your News Clipper commands are wrong. Let's look at that.

There seems to be an extra ">" at the end of this filter command.

I'm guessing the problem is #1 above...
