Hi, I'd suggest you conduct some tests to try to work this out for yourself by writing some test code to measure the elapsed time (in milliseconds eg using System.currentTimeMillis() ) and the counting the number of total bytes downloaded when you (a) include the News Description & (b) when you exclude the News Description.
You would probably need to run the tests multiple times to get a good representation of the differences given that the number of bytes for New Description will likely vary for each News item. I'd guess that including the News Description probably won't make too much of a difference if these are only a few sentences long and that including or excluding the News Picture would likely make more of a significant difference. I find that measuring by testing yourself is usually a good way to learn things instead of just asking someone else...
