My suggestion, because I was looking for the same thing, would be to use either dyne:bolic or Ubuntu Studio, both of them come with video editors that only work on Linux at least at the moment. dyne:bolic is a LiveCD and well Ubuntu studio a Ubuntu disto would also be a LiveCD.
So if you're willing to set aside a chunk your hard drive for a distro, I think it would be worth it.

I don't think this is off topic at all. Personally I have very little knowledge of video editing. Maybe http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Portal:Media will be able to help you. I'm sure this will reach one of the people involved with one of the wikinews video projects. I have the email for DV who was behind the original one if you want it (however thats from a while ago now), and I believe the members of the more recent video project are on this list.

Howdy!
This is a bit off-topic, but I think there may be wikinewsies with the expertise for which I'm searching.
I will very soon be part of a group operating a local origination
television
station (think "public access" with the potential for profit).
Basically,
we'll be given a connection to the cable-office head-end and given free reign to broadcast whatever we wish -- 20% of any revenue must be
returned
to the cable provider. The station was previously operated by a single individual running PowerPoint ads almost 24/7 (with the occasional local sporting event/meeting). We'd like to offer more content (including some news and Wikinews will be part of that). Any programming we produced
will be
released under a free license or into the public domain. All of this is background, I know, but I thought you might be interested.
Knowing there has been on-and-off discussion of Video Wikinews, I
thought
some of you might have suggestions for:
- Video Editing Software (free)
- Broadcast Software & Hardware
- Other general tips/thoughts
I would prefer to free and open source software (because it's "free" and because I want to promote the FOSS movement). None of us are hardcore coders.
I appreciate your thoughts -- if this is terribly off-topic, please feel free to reply to me off-list.
Thanks!
