You could use RegEx to do this:

<CFSET myVar = "<!-- Start News Here -->the news content is in here . . .
.<!-- End News Here -->">

<CFSET parsedVar = ReReplaceNoCase(myVar, "<!-- Start News
Here -->([^<]*)<!-- End News Here -->", "\1")>

<CFOUTPUT>#parsedVar#</CFOUTPUT>


I'm sure there are other ways, but this may help.
