News sites are some of the messiest pages on the web --- ads, popups, newsletter prompts, cookie banners, and auto-playing videos surround the actual article. Here’s how to extract just the journalism as clean Markdown.

Why Save News Articles as Markdown?

News content has unique preservation challenges:

Articles go behind paywalls --- free today, locked tomorrow
Content gets updated silently --- stories change without notice
Sites redesign --- old article links break
Clutter overwhelms --- ads, trackers, and popups make reading painful
No personal archive --- bookmarks die when URLs change

What Save Captures

What Save Removes

## What They're Building
The spending breaks down into three categories:
1. **GPU clusters** — primarily Nvidia H200 and B200
