Removing links from downloaded news

Hi all,

I often download news using Calibre, but I am old fashioned and want to read the text sequentially, and therefore do not like links in the downloaded document. Actually I sometimes select a link and then uneeded things happen, such as trying to visit a web site or something. Since I use my Kindle in airplane mode it is rather annoying.

The question is, how can I remove links from a downloaded news file ? Or better yet, how can I make sure that no link is generated ?

Thanks in advance,
Sergio.
