In your theme.html file, you define the order of the blocktypes and content. In the default theme, it is set to this:
[center-center blocks]
[center-left][center-right]
[module content]
So you see, that the module content (news in this case), always goes below the blocks. You'll have to change that in the theme.html file, in order to have the order differently (for the whole site).
