sharing news articles or videos

Hello, all.
When attempting to share news article from news or YouTube, I am having issues sending the article or video. I go to share in news or YouTube, select message, select person, slide to send message, select phone, nothing happens. However if I slike right I see copy link. I tap on it and it copies the article link or video. I have to closed YouTube or news to go to message and select person and paste link in the body of the message and tap on send. This is the only way I can share anything. What I am doing wrong? Before we could send the article or video directly from the app. Now it seen that we can not unless I am not doing something correctly. Help.
