Q:

Removing '' from a string in javascript

I'm receiving an array of strings from a REST api call, and the strings have some html tags in them, for example:
Bard's opponents can also travel through his Magical Journey doorways. You can follow him, if you think it's safe.</li>

You can crush Bard's healing shrines just by walking over them. Don't let his allies take them without a fight.

Bard's ultimate, Tempered Fate, affects allies, enemies, monsters, and turrets alike. Sometimes it can be to your advantage to jump into it!</li>

Each line is a string, and two of them have an </li> tag at the end.
I tried writing a function that receives such an array, and returns a corrected array. Problem is, when I use it, the console in my website shows some weird errors with the strings from the array, and I've realized my function was the cause.
That is the function:
modal.removeBracketsFromArray = function (array) {
    if (array == undefined)
        return array;

    function removeBracketsText(text) {
        return text.replace(/<[^>]*>/g, '')
    };

    var newArray = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
        newArray.push(removeBracketsText(array[i]));
    }

    return newArray;
 };

It seems to do the work, but it somewhy messes up when using it in an ng-repeat attribute.
This is an use example: 
<champion-ally-enemy-tips allytips="modalCtrl.removeBracketsFromArray(modalCtrl.champ.allytips)"
                          enemytips="modalCtrl.removeBracketsFromArray(modalCtrl.champ.enemytips)">
</champion-ally-enemy-tips>

which then moves to:
<ul>
    <li ng-repeat="enemytip in enemytips"><h6>{{enemytip}}</h6></li>
</ul>

When I remove the method call (like so), it doesn't show an error, but the tags remain:
<champion-ally-enemy-tips allytips="modalCtrl.champ.allytips"
                          enemytips="modalCtrl.champ.enemytips">
</champion-ally-enemy-tips>

Is my function doing something weird without realizing it? thanks for helping
This is a pastebin of the errors I receive: LINK

A:

Instead of messing with the array, how about creating a custom filter to strip out the HTML on display?
.filter('removeHTML', function() {
    return function(input) {
        return input.replace(/<[^>]*>/g, '');
    }
})

Then change your display inside the ng-repeat to:
<h6>{{enemytip | removeHTML}}</h6>
