Seems to be a bug in the web newsgroup interface.  Indeed:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.digitalmars.com/webnews/newsgroups.php

Knowing PHP, it should be trivial to insert a meta tag to fix this. 
Though really, www.digitalmars.com should be configured to declare all 
text/* content as UTF-8 in the HTTP headers.

Meanwhile, best bet is to stop using the web interface and get oneself a 
newsreader.
