Something like this is probably better:

```scheme
(use-modules (guix ui)
             (srfi srfi-1))
(define (strings lst) 
  (fold (lambda (i result) 
          (cond 
           ((string? i) (cons i result))
           ((list? i) (append (strings i) result))
           (else result)))
        (list)
        lst))
(map texi->plain-text
     (strings (call-with-input-file "etc/news.scm" read))
```
