I ran a du report on /usr/spool/news and put it through the utility
dugraph (from comp.sources.misc) to get a graph of where the news disk
space is really consumed.  Each directory has its subdirectories
listed in order of size.  The "(etc.)"s (and the space below them) are
all the subdirectories which are too small to show up individually.
The total space occupied (with a 2 week expiration time) is 55
megabytes.
