When viewed with FF or shipping Safari (419.3) news scrolly works just fine. It seems to me like a regression.
Created attachment 11070 [details] Reduction(?) Firefox and shipping Safari lay out everything on a single line. Opera wraps (but somehow does get orange.co.uk right). In quirks mode, TOT WebKit behaves like Firefox and shipping Safari. In strict mode, it differs.
I think this regressed in r11028 (fix for bug 5587).
Correct behavior: * Text wraps around for a large window * Scrollbar appears for small window (when text exceeds window size). Webkit: Safari 3.0.4 5523.15 (nightly build for 2/27/2008) OSX 10.5.2
Site has changed. This problem does not seem to exist anymore. Closing.
