I definitely don't want it to be a debate section, but I think it could work if we either

A) Add more members to the News Crew or
B) Just open it up to all to post news

With that in mind, I suggest limiting News topics to outside of the forums.
"Whimzer has left"
"Thomas smartness is better then rest"
"Grammar is not this forums best thing"
"LoL game scores better then yours"

Too broad of a topic

So, how about a completely open News posting topic with rules of posting real-world news only?

Post Re: News section is withering.
I will open it sometime this weekend. Imagine it as a more focused "Other" section where you are free to post news to discuss. If it doesn't work out then that will be the end of the section.

If it doesn't work out, this will be the end of the section
