An even better to eliminate the groups you don't want to see
is to use the 'u' (unsubscribe) feature of readnews.

More than once I have had to explain to netnews readers on my
machine that saying 'options -n only the ones I want' prevents
you from seeing new newsgroups that they were interested in.

I personally don't have any options line (default subscriptions here
are 'all') and have unsubscribed to the ones I don't care to read.
