Newsstand - pinching app closed

I'm having difficulty pinching the app closed in newsstand. I went to the retail store and they did a factory install/restore. App still not pinching closed. Any suggestions?

iPad Air, iOS 8.1.3

Newsstand is not really an app and thus cannot be pinched closed like an app normally can. It's more like a folder. Tap the home button once to close it.
