Share Menu Extensions fail to be provided in Apple News

I began reading news articles via Apple News available on Mojave and really enjoy it except for its inability to share articles properly.

The Share Menu Extensions that are available in System Preferences -> Extensions appear in Safari just fine but in Apple News they are trimmed down to a few that never include the share extensions that I am wanting like Evernote and Add to Reading List.

Apple News:

System Preferences -> Extensions:

Safari:

I am hoping there is a work around for this, otherwise I guess I will need to submit a bug report.

Ideas, anyone?

MacBook Air (2018 or later)

It would be more in the nature of a feature request. Feedback - macOS - Apple

Then you should let Apple know. Feedback - macOS - Apple

So you work for Apple and know that they intentionally left these out? If that is the case then why does the same feature work properly on iOS devices (my iPhone and iPad)?

This must be a bug with the News program that was delivered with Mojave. It is like this on both Macs here at the house. I will try on a fresh VM of Mojave here in a little bit to ensure it fails there as well.
