I have used Newsbreak for a long time, and it is ok on the Mogul, but with no offline pics it is a little less than I would like.
I just installed SpbInsight and it seems pretty sweet.....

What are you guys using?

I used to LOVE 'NewsPanel' by Marsware. The only reason that I don't use it now is because (for me, at least) when I'm running NewsPanel AND WeatherPanel at the same time my phone freezes every time I touch it. If you're not using using WeatherPanel, NewsPanel is the best. Displays the article summary & Picture on the today screen plug-in.

p.s. Just google it, or search on here. It IS a free program...

I didn't mind paying for Newsbreak or for Insight if it is worth it...... need some more testing on Insight, but is a real promising app I think.
I never use the today screen on any of the rss apps though... never liked it on there. just me.

I have used pretty much all of them and so far the newest version of SPB Insight is the one I am sticking with. I really liked Egress, but since I like using the jog wheel to scroll, I found it easier to use Insight.

I currently use Egress and think the simplicity of the interface is great, there are a few quirks which the developer would probably fix if I e-mailed him, but is all in all a great program.

What do you mean about the jog wheel to scroll? In the current version I can use the jog wheel to scroll up/down the various feeds and the items in the feeds and read the stories...

I used the jog wheel to scroll, but when you hit the OK button on the left side of the phone, it would minimize Egress. When you hit the OK button in Insight, it will close the story or channel, but not the whole program. I like trying to use my Mogul completely one handed...just a personal preference!
