This level of permission control is not available in the news module currently supplied with XOOPS.
You can however, upgrade and use
News 1.2 or greater. This module has many new additions to the permission system which allows greater user control of who can approve, submit and view news.
Please read the instructions carfully before you upgrade. You can get a copy by clicking:

Good Luck
