Massimo, Hmm. Latest version of Google Reader does what you suggest. I also think I seen a subset as a Yahoo Pipes filter.
But the creation side as a news syndicate as a P2P is an intriguing idea. I would even suggest getting money grubby with such an idea for the simple fact that there are unaffiliated news stringers all over the planet that would love to find a outlet for their video/articles. Novel idea and commendable. Considering that US news is cratering we are headed this way regardless.
