There are some "doors" that aren't games, but none of them provide current
affairs info as far as I know.  Could end up being a bunch of work just to
reimplement a newspaper's website in textmode.  A feed (JSON or RSS likely)
would be needed, and then you could just import that into a message area (and
maybe spur some discussion) rather than have a dedicated external program for
this purpose.
