Good catch, Jeremy. I was assuming the images were not a link so I didn't
mention it.

And as a tangent, hopefully the site only has one link to each story,
instead of two (or more) that all point to the same location. I'm guessing
the headline is the only link. (Is the headline a heading, a la <h2>?)
