I know this isn't an option that you were given, but how about adding a
"New" icon next to new items. Of course, you would need a way to
determine which ones were new. In that case, you would have to add a
date field for each entry to determine if it's a new item. Something
like, if entry is within the last month, display the icon, else, don't.

You could add a date field in the db and then do a date check to see how old
the data is. If it is new the have it formatted differently.
Which are both good ideas, in fact we are doing the "New" icon. However, the
big cheese wants the text _within_ the content that has changed to be
displayed differently. His logic "we may have a five-page section in which
only two sentences have changed. People would not want to have to read the
whole thing again to try and discern the changes" I follow the logic, but it
looks like I would have to compare the original content to the updated
content and apply styling... all _before_ sending to the DB.... Starting to
look like the admin will be handling this manually...;)
