The newspaper gave me three missions?

Okay, so the newspaper gave me three missions to pick from, something against the CoT, a defeat boss, and a steal some thing. I clicked on the defeat boss but it didn't do anything, so I clicked again. Then my nav bar said "Kidnap so and so" and apparently the enemy group was the CoT, who I didn't want to fight. So I dropped it. But now I have TWO other kidnaps in my missions list! One is against the Lost and the other just says "Unable to obtain task detail information"

I had zero missions when I logged on. Both of my current missions are random newspaper missions...and of course my mission drop is used up. I'm bugging it now, but can any one explain what happened here?

Edit: I just tried to enter the one that said "Unable to obtain task detail information" and it just disappeared. But I still ended up with a mission I never selected, and some how seemed to get at the same time as another newspaper mission.

If you weren't able to get the task information, the mission was bugged. I recommend sending a bug report with as much information as you can think to give them.

Here's a quick workaround when you see a Newspaper mission you don't want: Leave the zone, then come back. BAM! Three new missions!

EDIT: Ok, I reread your post. Now I know what you're talking about.

You already sent the bug report, and of the two missions you had only one is left. There's not much else you can do besides finishing up that mission yourself, finding an arc in your level range you can do, or waiting out three days to drop your current mission.

Thanks, but I wasn't really looking for a solution. Just curious if anyone could explain what might have gone wrong.

I get that every now and then. I'll click on one, and it'll say a totally different mission (one that wasn't even being offered!) in my Nav. The one I picked will be on my mission list under it. I've never been sure what causes it; I usually just run the one I picked, and sometimes the other goes away on its own, other times, I have to run it too.
