Probably best to do something like that on the toolserver [provided it
isn't violating rules about using wikimedia content to display
articles. I don't think its a problem for just headlines, don't really
know] . It probably wouldn't be too difficult to do (I can't do it
since I'm going to be away for about a month starting tomorrow).
Doing it directly on enwikinews is more difficult. It could use js to
hide all other page content, but that's kind of ugly, or it could use
xslt and the api, which is also kind of ugly.
