That would be the case anyway, I think. Wikinews is CC-BY, not CC-BY-SA. you can't re-use SA material into a document that is expressly licensed as not requiring SA. you would need per-document additions to the license, which are not practical.
Oh, sorry, my apologies - I keep getting the WN license wrong, for some reason! But I think the point still presumably stands - "It would suggest we can't practically incorporate CC-BY material, &c..." - because we can't give the attribution as originally specified.
You make an interesting point... I'm not familiar with the way Wikinews does things, but it sounds like there could be a problem.
