WYSIWYG - too many <br> tags?

[ConfusedCartman]

So, I recently upgraded from 4.0.5 to 4.1.2, and the new WYSIWYG editor is behaving a little strangely. Namely, it's putting in an extra line break for many of the lines. For example, a post that's formatted like this in the WYSIWYG editor:

HEADER

• Item one
• Item two
• Item three

MORE TEXT

...will appear like this in the post itself:

HEADER

• Item one
• Item two
• Item three

MORE TEXT

It's really frustrating, especially considering it's called a WYSIWYG editor. If it was CSS, I could fix it easily, but it's literally extra <br> tags. I don't know what to do about removing extra tags. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
