More Information please

Why, oh why does the Gulf News want to keep me in the dark?

Today's edition has the headline: "National postal service to expand to the Americas". What? The postal service doesn't have service to the Americas now? Then how did my letters home get there? The article itself is no more help at all: "Empost has expanded its global reach by announcing the opening of a new service to North and South America." (emphasis added) Great news, but what service, exactly? Well, the Gulf News isn't going to tell you.

Guys, if you are going to just cut and paste from a press release, can you at least paste the parts that actually talk about what is going on? Just including the first sentence (like here) would have been enough.
