Not sure about what you are looking for exacly - if you have news data
somewhere on the web in a certain known format, in a couple of hours you
could write a Perl script to retrieve it, parse, and enter into your
tables. Another couple of hours, and you could have PHP or CGI written
in your favorite language to display the news from the tables in the
format your are most happy with.
