The data for this works in a similar fashion to how your describing it, except a BBCNewsFeed XML format is used instead of RSS and it feeds an Interactive TV platform.

So you would see your own local news, sport and weather in vision. Then follow with the current headlines, sport etc. So the 6 million Freeview homes could get their local news first - with snow warnings where necessary! <snip> - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
