Hey Peartato. Thanks a lot for the report!

That website's markup is very interesting as it uses the shadow DOM for its content instead of the "light DOM" (i.e. regular HTML). There's already an open issue for this within the Readability repository, which Just Read uses for auto-selection.

Just Read will also be needed to be updated to select this content in the user-selection mode... I'll see about doing that when I get some time.

Thanks again for the report! Sorry for Just Read not working on this version of the MSN website -- the web is always changing so tools have to be updated to accommodate like this.
