    Hello,

    the Date value is sometimes wrong with SourceType.News, e. g.

        System.DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime() =  #4/24/2009 1:57:35 PM# Date

        StoryTime = #4/24/2009 2:34:24 PM# Date

    As you see the StoryTime is later than the actual time.

    Sometimes the StoryTime is missing.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    We haven't seen the issue of the date value for news ( documented at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd250945.aspx) being greater than the current UTC time.
    We will try to get a repro on our end. Can you give us a repro as well if you have it ( we are looking for the exact API request you used and the response you received which had the issue with the date field)? I will send the repro to my team as soon as I have it from you for debugging.

    Thanks
    Roopali

    Hello Roopali,

    it was my fault. The story time of the service ist correct but the .NET Framework converts the Date string of the NewsResult to the local time. Therefore I had to re-convert it to universal time.

    Thank you very much.
